Abstract:
Food waste persists despite solutions, driving social, environmental, and political issues like emissions, hunger, and reflecting broader consumerism and governance problems. A Hawai‘iʻs chool case study on campus food waste spotlights the necessity of collective action and systemic change, emphasizing education's role in driving impact. Drawing on the research, the paper advocates that regenerative soil and nature-aligned farming practices can address ecological problems underpinning food waste. By enlightening food producers and farming sustainably, we can tackle waste while moving toward sustainability. Ultimately, the project calls for greater individual and societal awareness and commitment to protective practices for our planet and future generations.

CREATIVE PROCESS:
The concept of creativity has come a long way. The Old Greeks would call those creative forces muses, other religions referred to them as God. Today people still mostly treat creativity as an aha moment outside the area of influence. However, just by looking at the creative process one can tell, that creativity and creative work is more than just that one "Aha-Moment" (insight). It is clear that generating ideas demands planning and preparation, identifying something of interest like a problem, an opportunity or a challenge, doing research. This then leads to thinking of a solution, allowing time to incubate and iterations before arriving at something “complete.” Students learn that hard work is what makes their ideas come to life and sticktuiveness is what helps them get better.
