One of the biggest problems with coffee production is that it generates an incredible amount of waste. Once coffee beans are separated from cherries, about 45% of the entire biomass is discarded.So for every pound of roasted coffee we enjoy, an equivalent amount of coffee pulp is discarded into massive landfills across the globe. That means that approximately 10 million tons of coffee pulp is discarded into the environment every year.

Researchers dumped tons of coffee waste into a forest. This is what it looks like now.

Similar laws worldwide have led to 75 percent reduction in recycled plastics. The United States generates more than 40 million tons of plastic waste a year, but just 5% of that is recycled. That is about to change. In less than a year Oregon will become the first state in the U.S. to implement a series of laws known as Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). The laws fundamentally shift the responsibility for funding recycling systems from local governments to the plastic makers. The law’s fee structures are designed to incentivize producers to make packaging that minimizes waste and environmental impacts and improves recyclability.

U.S. plastics makers will soon have to pay to recycle the 40 million tons of plastic junk they make in a year

“[I]nvoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God,” the Constitution of the Confederate States of America composed by southern slaveholders in 1861 sought to “establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.” The authors of Project 2025, the latest playbook for restructuring the federal government in order to accomplish the policy goals of Christian Nationalists, similarly declare their manifesto will “decide America’s future” by securing their “God-given individual rights to live freely” and exercise dominion over others.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

I’ve been camping since I was very young (seriously, my family started taking me around my first birthday), and if there’s one thing that’s always bothered me, it’s the drinking water situation. Sure, you can grab a couple of gallon jugs at the store for convenience's sake—but does it really make sense to bring that much single-use plastic into the great outdoors?

The unthinkable has happened. Again. A gunman has taken multiple lives. The difference this time? It happened here, in Alameda. We are an island, both physically and psychologically. I spend a lot of time explaining to people that our focus is Alameda, and Alameda alone, so our coverage doesn’t usually include stories as horrific as this one.
