Up to 40% of all food in the United States is wasted.Producing food that people don't consume swallows up roughly 20% of America's cropland and agricultural water，and produces greenhouse gas emissions（排放物） equal to 37 million passenger vehicles each year.Yet，37 million Americans lack consistent access to adequate and nutritious food.
   NRDC's Food Matters Initiative partners cities to confront food waste.Food Matters is piloting all-round，cutting-edge strategies that are easy to follow and share.The first two strategies--and arguably the most critical ones--are to estimate a local baseline level of food waste and then assess the potential for rescuing surplus food.A baseline is necessary in order to understand the scale and natural of the problem.It is also a prerequisite（先決條件） to assessing any progress made，which will help inform future program development.
   Using a calculator tool NRDC developed based on the Food Matters research models，the Atlanta's Mayor's Office of Resilience had a better understanding of the qualities of wasted food and where it was likely occurring.This allowed the city to focus the attention on the solutions that were more closely related to the situation in Atlanta.
   As in many cities across the U.S.，much of the food wasted in Atlanta occurs in households and consumer-facing businesses such as restaurants.Armed with this information，the Mayor's Office of Resilience，creates a restaurant challenge encouraging restaurants to work on the entire system of reduction，rescue，and recycling.After 90 days and participation from 6 restaurants at Atlanta's Hartsfield Jackson airport，the program rescue 21，000 meals and saved owners over ＄62，000.
   Atlanta's restaurant challenge is one of a handful of examples where cities have engaged（吸引） consumer-facing food businesses to reduce their food waste.New York led the charge with a Mayor's challenge to restaurants.Denver recently completed a series of neighborhood restaurant challenges.Nashville has an ongoing Mayor's Food Saver Challenge including not just restaurants but other food businesses as well.Several other cities and countries throughout the country have similar business engagement success stories.

1．Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
   Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers，for food，for sport，and simply because they were in the way.Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.Hundreds more are on the danger list today.About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
   Why should people care？Because we need animals.And because once they are gone，there will never be any more.

   For example，when farmers killed large numbers of hawks（鷹），the farmers' stores of corn and grain were destroyed by mice.Why？Because hawks eat mice．With no hawks to keep down their numbers，the mice multiplied quickly.
   Luckily，some people are working to help save the animals.Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem.And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
