Grilled chicken, shrimp, eggs, vegetables. Drinking lots of water will also keep you full
John asks…
how do you make a forever sustainable environment?
i have an environment project, we have to get a living organism(excludes snakes, insects and spiders) and have to create a environment for it to live in. where the environment will forever provide food for it.if non aquatic water may be added.
so for example
if i had a frog i could fill the bottom of a tank with water and have the environment built around. for food supply have a separate tank with flies that are continuously reproducing that can fly into the other tank for the frog to eat
The Expert answers:
For one thing, make sure its population doesn’t exceed the carrying capacity of its environment. Elbow room is a big deal.
People are currently trying to violate that rule on this finite planet, but don’t like to admit it.

Do college students need a sustainable bank account?
I am an incoming freshman and I am wondering if I need a lot of money in my bank account to be “well off” in college.
My parents are paying tuition, food, and clothes…
I have about $200 bucks to my name and I am wondering if I need a bank account around $2,000 to have enough spending money in college.
I just want to know if you think I am okay as far as spending money goes…
The Expert answers:
“well off” is kind of a relative thing. It depends on what’s important to you. FOr example, I partied a lot in college, but a lot of my friends didn’t. For me to be well off I needed about $50 a weekend for covers, drinks, clothes and cab fare. For my friends, they didn’t need as much because they spent more time studying. So every summer I worked and saved up $3-4,000 and I spent a lot of that at school. (But my parents didn’t pay for my clothes. My senior year I had a car, so I had to get a part time job, also. (If I hadn’t needed the car for interviewing I would have skipped it–working cut into my party time and study time a lot.)
One of the most important reasons for a bank account is kind of a backboard in case you run into unexpected expenses. Your parents are serving that function for you right now.
So if your parents are paying for tuition food and clothes and you don’t have a car, you really don’t have much to spend money on. I bet if they are paying all that for you they probably also give you some cash from time to time. So I would think that your $200 plus gifts from them would keep you in important stuff like CDs/MP3s, an occasional date or sports game, plus a beer or two once in awhile (but not every weekend). If you’re careful you can be pretty well off on just what you already have. If you run across an unexpected expense, like for a class or something, your parents will probably just give you the money.
If you’re planning to party a lot, or join a frat (from what I’ve heard frats and sors are kinda expensive ’cause of all the activities they do) or order delivery pizza or own a car or you just want to have pocket money to spend then you’re going to need lots more money. Maybe it would be a good idea to get a job in that case.

Is Drinking Coffee a Sustainable Food Source?
The Expert answers:
Yes. Anything edible is a sustainable food source. The question becomes what are the requirements and costs to continue using it. No, coffee provides no nutrition. But that is not your question is it?
Charles asks…
A sustainable future in relation to food?
Discuss values and associated behaviours in relation to a sustainable future, in relation to sustainable food.
That is the question I am being asked to write an essay on? I am really unsure about what I can include and anything would help!
So this is what is required of me: Has written or spoken on each value, explaining how that value supports a sustainable future, and provides in depth examples from the readings and interviews of the behaviours that arise as a consequence of one value and thenon how a value supports a sustainable future, with detailed examples from the readings and interview of the behaviours that arise as a consequence. The discussion includes justifying decisions, making judgements, stating opinions, considering implications, projecting future impacts, evaluating options, comparing and contrasting, analysing or suggesting alternatives, where appropriate.
Any links or your own thoughts would be very useful!
The Expert answers:
Well the first thing that needs to be done for a sustainable future in food is to stop using food and farm land to make fuel when there is plenty of oil in the world to use.
