Little things add up. Metered-dose inhalers use hydrofluoroalkanes as propellants, and HFAs are substantial contributors of GHG emissions. In one year, inhalers have the climate change impact of half a million cars. Alternatives are becoming available.

America is sixth when it comes to food waste, and most of this occurs in kitchens, restaurants and supermarkets. Americans buy too much, want huge portions and expect high aesthetic standards. In other countries, most food waste occurs because of poor storage and inefficient chains. /end
