This week people who celebrate Hannukah and Christmas get busy making sure that their homes are festive and bright. The holidays are also a time of excess. So much is thrown away that could be reused or repurposed or donated. It is estimated that one billion people in the world suffer from hunger and malnutrition and about 24,000 people die every day of hunger. 5% of America’s leftovers could feed 4 million people for a day. What else do we waste in America? Water, paper, everything. Santa had it right when his presents came in recycled newspaper. Cynthia Brian and Heather Brittany look at the enormous amount of waste in our country with ideas on what we can do about it.
Cynthia Brian also discusses teen alcohol and drug bingeing. The first alcoholic drink is consumed at an average age of 12 in the USA. The earlier drinking begins, the greater risk of addiction and greater potential harm is to brain development. The human brain is not fully developed until around age 25. What can we do to protect our teens for binge drinking?
