    A really cool and smart thing that can make waste useful two times over. Not only by making it into a compost but also by using it to produce electrical energy. Europe is already using these techniques and it is nice to know that we, America, are following suite.

    Kids as young as 13 are trying to make a difference because they realize the damage methane gas can cause. If kids are trying to make a difference, I think we can learn from this and try to fight waste in our own ways too.

    As the writer explained, we are throwing food away up to 40 percent every year, 10 times as much as Southeast Asia, and up to 50 percent from the 1970s. As the result, people are buying food unawareness or the fast food.

    This is a pretty good article. It is sad how they mentioned that chemicals which were banned in the U.S. and Europe for being toxic are now starting to be used in developing countries. It is sad to know that there are companies out there worried more about their pockets of "one"(the company) rather then the health and lives of thousnds of people.

    Years ago, we chose the word sustainability to describe societies goals and the belief that its possible. The most common way sustainability has been defined is "the ability to sustain" or "the capacity to endure." It is about our society and its future and the lives we live and everything in it.Sustainability is about being eco-friendly and eco-effective. Society needs to change its marketing strategies.

    Arizona is a good state to be considered a sustainable state. Becuase of the sun and how it provides power with solar engery. Arizona is in the best position and hits the brightest spot of the sun, that's why it's so bright here. Thus leading to a lot of solar pannels being put up.

    In this website a article is written by Grace Interlichia, the article explains that people often mistake sustainability for giving up living pleasures such as desired foods, homes and cars. But in reality its not giving up what people loath but instead creating a better way to live by fuel friendly cars and sustainable farming.

    In this article it's saying that 20 pounds of food is wasted each month for each of the 311 million americans. That amounts to $1,350 to $2,275 a month.  That's what most people make in a month. Also throwing away cereal that isn't all the way gone, just to clear or make room in your pantry.

    First class chefs Bobby Flay, Michael Symon, Anne Burrell and Alex Guarnaschelli tackle one of the most massive problems in food today - waste! Divided into two teams, with only 48 hours on the clock, they are challenged to create a multi course gourmet banquet worthy of their great reputations, but with a big twist; they can only use food that is on its way to the trash.

    On average, 1,300 pounds of food waste per employee per year is sent to the landfill. About 3.25 billion pounds of food, in 2008, was sent to the landfill by supermarkets. Changing our shopping habits can help our local grocery stores cut back on sending food to the landfill.
