food waste

In Switzerland about one third of our food does not end up on our plate instead it goes into the bin. With an average waste of 330kg per person and a population of 8’500’000’000 people we are wasting 2’800’000’000kg of food every year.

what can we do about that?

1. Do not shop hungry: It is common knowledge that when you are hungry while grocery shopping you end up with much more food than you actually need.

2. Think befor you buy: Plan your meals that you will eat through out the week and buy exactly what you need for that. Like that you can avoid buying food that you will not use.

3. Store your food properly: If food is stored properly it looks longer good and extends its shelf life. For example vegetables and fruit like a humidity at around 60% therefore store it in the fridge!

In my opinion everyone should try and rethink their way of buying and making use out of their food because it is a problem that affects us all.

digital learning

In todays society technical devices are no longer a volontary thing but a necessary tool to create a lecutre.

but what are the exact benefits of it?

1. the lecutures can be recorded: With recorded lectures you can rewatch the lecutre even if your sick or can nit attend class because of another reason. Like that students can keep up with the learning matter even though they were not in class.

2. we can learn together: Because everyone is connected with one another we can compare and help each other within our learning process even though we are not in class.

3. self-directed study: If you have all the learning matter online you can work in your own rhythm. Like that you have the ability of studying things that you did not get while you were in class at home and set your own tempo. 

 

I think this topic is important because students in todays society should learn how to work independently and with your own work.
