    This article talks about 10 facts about sustainability. How we need to grow our own food because now a days the food is being genetically modified and the government is subsiding with it. My favorite way of sustainability was to eat animal products because "organic" foods in marketplaces may be mono cropped.

    An estimated forty-five to fifty percent of food is discarded each year by Americans.That makes it an economic problem for everyone. In a country known as the "throw away" society we are destroying the planet with methane, mountains of food waste that could of been eaten, and wasting money that could of been saved.

    In this article they talk about how half of what  we produce in america is wasted. It also talks about how farmers grow a lot of product in order to get paid more and if it comes out bad they just leave it to rot in the fields.

    Nearly 50% of all food ready for harvest gets thrown away, according to a study done by the University of Arizona! Sometimes the crops can't be saved due to mother nature, but in most cases food waste happens because we have been trained to only look at the perfect looking food.

    In this article it explains how there are children in need to at least one meal per day and we waste tons of food each day. Another good point on how to decrease food waste is to harvest and crop your own vegetables and fruits. This article also explains how if you have some food left over you can try to juice it, or chop it and be able to eat it.

    Cameron i agree i liked how This website gives you knowledge on a wide spectrum i enjoyed quite a few of the tabs i agreed with and thought that we should make so many of these things laws which can be punishable if they are ignored. The only way it seems to get people to do what's right is to give them no other choice.
