ZERO waste

Zero waste is a really cool concept....and there are companies implementing it. I work at REI, and as a company, we try really hard to help out the environment. The company is trying to go to ZERO waste within the next few years. It is awesome to be seeing it happen. When we unload boxes at REI, we send them back the distribution center to be reused. How cool is that?! That's just a little part of whats going on, but there is a lot more for sure

Green Jobs

I liked Joe's lecture. But, was it about green jobs? He told us problems, and not enough opportunities and solutions. It seemed like we discussed alternative energy, but not too much detail in actual green jobs. However, I liked Joe's speech. It showed us a lot of good things, and as far as jobs go, at the very least we know where NOT to get a job.
