    Food, Agriculture, and Land Use
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money?

    Each time I go on my walk I find myself being able to calm down and really figure out what I need to do for the day and reflect on what I can be doing better at.
