Article: A Restaurant that Never Waste a Thing

My dad  found this article and showed it to me the other day. It talks about a restaurant called “Sandwich Me In” that “hasn’t taken out the trash in nearly two years.” Meaning that “there isn’t anything to take out” and send it to the landfill. Justin Vrany, the owner, has a goal to become a “zero waste restaurant in mind.” So far, it is coming true and they make about “eight gallons of waste” per year.

Holiday Break

The holiday break is about half way done for me until I go back into school. School starts again on January 6. I know high school students will be very tired and distracted (as in telling their friends about their break or so on). I do wonder about how my friends are doing on their break. One of my friend’s birthday was on Christmas and I send him a message to say happy birthday.

Also on that same day, my dad and I did our holiday run (it is a thing that my dad’s family does on a holiday, they would go golfing). It was an 8 mile run towards the old Gibson Guitar factory in downtown Kalamazoo. Very snowy and my dad picked up and took lots of photos of trash along that way. Posting the trash’s information is coming along. He was able to add information just by adding the picture on the server.  We are getting closer to our goal by the end of the break, make the Pick’n Run app.

Keep running and picking up trash.  Doing so helps us and nature.
