Did you know that an estimated 30-50 percent of the food produced in the world goes uneaten? It’s time to think about how we can eliminate waste.
Think About!
Hi there! I'm with AIDemocracy, the non-profit running the 2012: Challenge Accepted conference. If finances are an issue, please note we do offer a limited number of need-based scholarships. Best of luck and thanks for the interest!
Thanks for letting me know. That could definitely help me out!
www.AcceptTheChallenge2012.org
This April, youth leaders and changemakers will come together to debate the biggest foreign policy challenges facing us during this 2012 election year. We’re taking a hard look at security, jobs, climate change, global justice and more, and letting the candidates know how we feel. Setting a new course for our country is our great generational challenge.
Are you a young person who understands that the local is global? Are you frustrated with our political climate, and ready to make a noise so loud that it can’t be ignored? Accept the challenge. Join us.
Spread the word!
This might interest some followers. I'm thinking about going if I can find the money for it.

Updates since I stopped working on this blog.
I don't even remember when I last used this. But a short recap over the past few months:
been involved in MSU Greenpeace, did some awesome actions (look here for our tumblr)
decided to change my major to public policy so that I could eventually work that into campaign shit in my career future.
am starting an organization at my school to ban bottled water (sign petition please!)
last week I had a conference call with Take Back The Tap and me and my friend who are working on this water bottle thing together both have interviews for a campus coordinator position tomorrow.
me and that same friend just started a vegan challenge where we will put money in a jar if we break our diet (money will be donated eventually). so far it's been working out just fine. it helps that being lactose intolerant basically forced it upon me anyways.
Whoa! Even non vegetarians must be shocked.
Stop bottled water sales on my campus! Make 'be spartan green' more than just a saying.
This blog is kind of on a hiatus by the way, since I haven't felt like keeping up with it lately. My apologies.

Is Meat Worth It?
starts-with-one-step:
15 simple ways to be green that wont put you in the poor house.
Read news online. It takes about 500,000 trees just for Sunday’s paper alone. Read online and save paper.
Donate your clothes, don’t throw them out. That way, not only are you giving the less fortunate clothes, but you are recycling them at the same time.
Sell working electronics and other items online. Such as with Kajiji. Why throw out something that works when someone might need/want it?
Promote industrial hemp & bamboo. Industrial hemp is cultivated not to have seeds, which, long story short, makes it so you can not get high off it. By promoting industrial hemp, you are not in any way promoting the drug. Hemp and bamboo are some of the fastest growing plants on earth, and can be used for paper, plastics, food, flooring, and much much more. These two alone could save hundreds and thousands of trees.
Recycle your cans, bottles, and paper.Ten billion bottles are thrown out a year in the UK alone. Put boxes in your office and kitchen to make it easier to recycle.
Donate your furniture. Most garbage dumps have an area where people can pick out and choose from used furniture and electronics that would otherwise be taking up garbage space. Donating will give people who can not afford the chance of buying furniture the ability to have some.
Clean with white vinegar. Make a solution of half water and half vinegar(or what amount you prefer) in a spray bottle then save money and the environment as you clean.
Drink from a water bottle, not bottled water. Studies show that bottled water is quite often just tap water anyways, so save your money and the environment by drinking from a reusable bottle.
Start a vegetable/food garden or join a community garden.Starting a garden will not only save you money in the long run, it is also healthier then store bought for both you and the environment. Not to mention you can give any extra vegetables left over to friend and family, or can them for later use.
Buy in bulk. When you buy foods in bulk, you use less packaging then multiple singular packages that are often only half full; and it can also save you money.
Make your own bread. Most bread bags are not recyclable, and most bread is full of preservatives and other nasty ingredients. Save yourself money, and make yourself and the earth healthier by making bread. Even if you just make it once a week and buy bread in between, it will still make a difference.
Use reusable grocery bags. It will save plastic and paper. Just put the bags in your vehicle or by the door so you can grab them when you need them.
Eat less seafood. Over-fishing is a major problem for the oceans all around the world. If you were to eat less seafood, or even fish your own, it would help drastically.
Use Ecosia as your search engine. For every search made, money is donated to save the rain-forests.
Get water barrels. In most places you can collect enough water from rain to water your garden for months, and rain water is actually softer then tap water, which makes it healthier for plants. Save some water(and money if you are on a water meter) by using rainwater to water your garden.
So just to let you know I have been giving to WWF and Greenpeace for along time now and I saw that you were interested in Greenpeace. They are a really great org. You should check out the World Wildlife fund too.
Yeah, my university has a Greenpeace chapter/group thing that I'm getting involved with this year. The first meeting is actually in like 2 days and I'm super excited about it. It should be awesome. Thanks for the tip though.
