    While reading this article I have realized many companies have been going the Eco- friendly route. On the way to work I saw the VA hospital have solar panels on the overheads in the parking lot. I also see a lot of churches installing solar panels.
  • Andrea Manginelli on 28 Mar 14
     
    I love the comments made in this article. I agree with the author when she states that people have to look at the solar panels as part of the system on the building and not as something added on.

    The average person throws away about 20 pounds of food each month, that adds up between $28-$43. The United Nations has predicted that the U.S. will need about 70 percent more food to feed the projected population, in 2050, with how much we waste today. We're not only wasting food,we're also wasting water, energy, chemicals, packaging, and gas transporting discarded food. All of this is taken to produce and distribute the food and where does it end up? In the landfills.

    There are consequences to food waste including environmental, economical, and cultural. The ways to stop this waste are simple sticking to shopping lists, saving leftovers, and composting or donating what you don't want. People are becoming more involved with what they can do to stop this waste, but are they to late?

    This displays the problem of food waste. Most of the waste that we see goes straight to the landfill in garbage bags, but others do not realize other forms of waste. Any other form of waste that I thought was interesting was the food waste we put in the garbage disposal. Food waste goes straight to the landfills creating global warming. Food waste cost Americans $100 billion annually. Do people realize how much they waste? Will food waste ever stop?

    This article talks about a program that K-12th grade schools can implement through out their school. It gives examples on how this program has already been implemented and changed in schools. It also talks about how the program can be implemented in a school. This program is a great way to teach children and staff different ways to create a sustainable school.
  • Jacob Ortiz on 23 Mar 13
     
    I think that is pretty cool that they have the kids get involoved as well, because like you said it is a great way to teach kids about sustainability and maybe some could even educate their parents. "However, most school districts don't have an award-winning nonprofit to implement a comprehensive Zero Waste program for them." (Schumper & Dietz). This comment made me think, are Zero Waste programs very exspensive if it is not through a non-profit group, and is that why other schoos do not implement this?

    At evey step of the supply chain, food is getting wasted. A study suggested a few ways to help reduce food waste are examples like being mindful of buying too much food and cooking too much of it. Also freeze food to save for later instead of throwing it out.
