Some claim that many of the environmental issues we are plagued with today have come about due to a lack of education or awareness. Figuring out how to solve them is no easy task.

Einstein said that, “we cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”

So how can we change our thinking to be able to combat the eco-issues facing us today (think Gulf oil spill, diminishing landfill space, global warming, etc.)?

Eat more cereal I say!

No, seriously.

Mismanagement of school funds by school boards across America along with general underfunding has contributed to the blight on our education system. How can you help? The main thing is to know who you are voting for, and to participate in our democratic process.

Beyond that, eat more cereal!

General Mills and Campbell’s Soups offer labels that can be cashed in for rewards and monetary contributions toward your local educational institute.

By no means am I advocating the processed food jungle, but most everyone eats cereal and soup at some point of the year or another. What I am suggesting is that, if you do fall off the all natural greenie bandwagon and buy a box of General Mills cereal, be sure to clip the boxtops and give them to your local school. Each one is worth 10¢. You wouldn’t go throwing away your dimes in this economy would you?
