After paper, food scraps are the nation’s second largest source of waste, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. Leftovers fill 18% of landfills and make up over 30 million tons of what is sent to dumps each year.

“Imagine a football stadium filled to its brim,” founder Komal Ahmad said. “That’s how much food goes wasted every single day in America.”

Since Feeding Forward launched in 2013, the service, which so far serves only the San Francisco Bay Area, has recovered more than 684,000 pounds of food. That means it’s fed more than 570,000 people and diverted more than 3.42 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions from landfills.

The Mariposa DR Foundation is inspired by these goals! Check this video out to see what these goals are! In honor of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, I encourage all of you to do something to help achieve these goals before the year is over. Good luck! 

To increase public awareness and galvanize support to the MDGs, an animation video has been produced. This public service announcement will serve as an ideal medium of information, inspiring people to mobilize.

We were discussing homosexuality because of an allusion to it in the book we were reading, and several boys made comments such as, “That’s disgusting.” We got into the debate and eventually a boy admitted that he was terrified/disgusted when he was once sharing a taxi and the other male passenger made a pass at him. The lightbulb went off. “Oh,” I said. “I get it. See, you are afraid, because for the first time in your life you have found yourself a victim of unwanted sexual advances by someone who has the physical ability to use force against you.” The boy nodded and shuddered visibly.“But,” I continued. “As a woman, you learn to live with that from the time you are fourteen, and it never stops. We live with that fear every day of our lives. Every man walking through the parking garage the same time you are is either just a harmless stranger or a potential rapist. Every time.” The girls in the room nodded, agreeing. The boys seemed genuinely shocked. “So think about that the next time you hit on a girl. Maybe, like you in the taxi, she doesn’t actually want you to.”

Homophobia: The fear that another man will treat you like you treat women. Andrew Sullivan.
