How much energy was used to make your food
We all know to check our food labels for fat content etc... after all, fat is important to us. But what about the environment?
Open the Future have the sort of food label that will affect your kids, grandkids etc. It's how much energy and fossil fuel is used to make your product. Just a concept at the moment:

We are so obsessed with ourselves that we forget about others and the future. Bottled water is another energy wasteful product. Water is taken from a place like Fiji or Mount Franklin, bottled in plastic (which is an oil based product) then shipped to your supermarket or shop (burning petrol or diesel on the way) and then the bottle is thrown in the trash where it takes hundreds of years to break down. The most economical and environmentally friendly water delivery system is the pipes in the ground... maybe we just have too much money, after all, we pay more for water than we do for petrol and yet we complain about petrol prices.
Glad to get that off my chest this week.
