Featured: Carl with a waste-stream brownie in hand
Finished the last of Ohio Chips Ahoy cookies for a breakfast that the kids dream about. munched a few of the hard boiled eggs and packed a few for the day.
On campus I had the Turkey bagel and a slice of pizza saved over night. Pink cotton candy was a first for me from the waste-stream. Also founds a nice score of fries and a cheeseburger (with the cheese on the bottom). While at the recreation center climbing wall, Carl tipped me off to a brownie in the trash. It was behind the staff desk, so he was nice enough to go remove it from the trash for me to consume it. Later I picked up and ate a buffalo chicken wrap and crust of pizza.

Some of my friends enjoyed one of his essays in Harper's Magazine. Fear of fallowing: The specter of no a growth world. http://www.harpers.org/archive/2008/03/0081958 We are getting a hands on account of environmental economic geography in one of our grad classes. This would go over well in class.
Kelsi keeps reminding me to look into Ruth Benedict. We chat about society, culture, and perceptions sometimes. Without knowing it, she and I discussed the topic of environmental culture, which happened to be the subject in env. econ. geography readings.
Ev hit me up to dig into The fatal harvest reader: the tragedy of industrial agriculture By Andrew Kimbrell. I've no excuse now, because it is on google books.
Green tips!
I like this many times over. Mainly because I'm mentioned. Really though, that book is great. Lots of pictures. ;)
