NYC is the world’s most wasteful mega-city. Besides being a consumerist utopia where people buy, and throw away, a staggering amount of stuff, it is also a densely populated, steadily aging city.

Faucets, toilets, or pipes, are constantly leaking. An armada of commerce-beckoning lights are always on and a fleet of gas-guzzling cars still clog our crosstown traffic and city roadways.

Nearly twenty million New Yorkers use more energy, suck down more water, and spew out more solid waste than any other mega-metropolitan area on earth.

Forget about weight loss... TODAY is Eat everything you want Day!

You can eat whatever you want, isn't that enough cause for celebration? Everyone is different, so for some people, this will mean pigging out on junk food. To stop counting calories and go berserk, eating everything from ice cream to chocolate to cake and pie, and then some cookies with ice cream washed down with hot chocolate, and then some ice cream cake. You get the picture.
