What is the most environmentally sustainable packaging material?

What is the concept of sustainable income?

What is the concept of sustainable income? What is an example of what this number may look like by using the income statement of a real-life company?

The Expert answers:

With “passive income”, you get paid over and over again for work which you’ve already done only once. You can continue to reap benefits – and income – from work you may have done last week, last month, last year or even earlier. Think of what happens with recording artists, movie stars and producers, for example. The song or music video is recorded once but pays them royalties for each and every time the movie is shown or rented. For each and every time the song or video is played. That’s why they earn so much money. It just keeps coming and coming and coming.

What’s a truly sustainable alternative to leather?

I understand that leather is bad in many ways (animal cruelty, the environment, and the people who tan the leather), but “vegan” leather isn’t really much better…It’s made of synthetic, non-degradable plastics that sit in our landfills and also is harmful to the people/environment it is produced in. The only thing it’s got going for it is that there are no slaughtered animals. So is there another vegan alternative to leather that is sustainable? Just looking for a better alternative. Thanks!

The Expert answers:

It was a last ditch effort. My college paper was due tomorrow. My graduation depended on it obviously I was in no mood to fail this course. So I placed an order with The Harvard Writers – Custom essay writing services. The A+ dissertation completed by them got me through college. Soon I will be placing an order with them for my Law School Application.
