The manifesto pamphlet "Why Freegan" (written by Against Me! Drummer Warren Oakes in 1999) is not clear in its definition of what constitutes freeganism. At one point, freeganism is defined as "an anti-consumerist ethic to eat", but goes on to describe practices, including dumpster diving, scraping plates, wild foraging, gardening, shoplifting, employee scams, and barter trade as an alternative to pay for food. The motivations are varied and numerous, in part to freeganism for environmental reasons, some for religious reasons, and others, the philosophy as a form of political consciousness. A short documentary, Bin appetite, are reasons why people are freegans. Many freegans free foods, by pulling it out of the trash, a practice often nicknamed dumpster diving in North America and I am Skipping or diving in the UK. Free goose find food in the garbage of restaurants, shops and other food industries, and this allows them to avoid money for products that say they use the resources of the world contribute to urban sprawl, workers unfairly treated, or disrespect Animal Rights. With the feed search, they believe that they are edible, the food from adding to landfills, and sometimes feed people and animals that might otherwise go hungry. [2] Instead, it grew the purchase of food, industrial, wild foragers [5] to find and harvest food and medicinal plants grow in their own communities. Some freegans participation in "guerrilla" or "community" schools, with the stated aim of rebuilding and reclaiming the ability to grow their own food. They claim that an alternative to dependence and to participate in what they see as an exploitative and environmentally destructive system of global, corporate industrialized food production. Sharing is also a common practice freegan. Food Not Bombs recovered food, which would otherwise waste to serve hot meals on the street to anyone who wants. The group promotes an ethic of sharing and the community, at work, to show what they consider to be the injustice of a society in which they claim to fight wars is regarded as a higher priority than feeding the hungry. Really, Really Free markets are free social events, in which shares may be freegans goods instead of discarding shares abilities, the gifts and food to eat. A free memory is a temporary market where people exchange goods and services outside of a money-based economy. Program and the Community Bike Bike Collective Community facilitate sharing of bicycles, and again found broken bicycles, and teach people how to protect their own bike repairs. In the process, they build a culture of expertise and sharing of resources, reuse wasted bicycles and bicycle, and create better access to environmentally friendly transport.
