my friends own very cool cafes on the east side. one is ruby blacks. one is jacks. ruby blacks owner, akte, wants to get th ecouncil to organise someone to coordinate all the pig farmers in the area to use them for food scrap recycling. lots fo good food gets binned in cafes but its too hard for cafe owners to find out which pig farmers would take them and get the food to the farmers etc.
jacks uses environmentally unfriendly packaging and is interested in reducing such waste. however, stu, the chef/owner, has read that paper packaging is just as bad for the environment as plastic. can this be true? he wants us to find out. if we do, sasha will shout the winners hot chocolates at jacks. very yummy hot chocoloates. but the work has to be of a high standard.
does anyone think they could investigate these issues for my friends?

Hmm... a tough question. True, magster, but then again, no-one knows when the world will tap into another oil source. Petrol prices are going down as a result of peace, so it might not be too much of a problem after all. Anyway, I just had a thought-petroleum is bad for the environment, so MAYBE people are pretending that we're running out so that we'll just leave the oil alone and save the environment! Haha!
Mr Woody-d'you me and Urxan could work as a pair? It would be fun. And with her associates and my knowledge, we could come up with an answer twice as good!
I'm pretty sure that plastic is worse, according to websites, but I'm going to do a bit more research to confirm my answer!
Meow!
paper and plastic can harm the enviroment, but plastic is the worst. I have done some research and one website suggested canvas bags because you can use them heaps of times.
!@#$bubbles$#@!
In my opinion, paper is ok, because it is biodegratable, but trees will be chopped down in the process. HOWEVER, mr woody's friends can plant trees for conservation, to make up for what they have done.
If the paper has been tainted with toxins, howerer, they sould use biodegratable bags made of rice, I think it is, that is used in Samoa. Samoa is one step ahead! (although my father gets all racist and says we are smarter and don't use it. SMart indeed! Humph!)
