Most people who live in our communities have little or no understanding of the important role that professional city, town, and county managers make in the quality of their lives. To address this issue, Life, Well Run, a national campaign to raise awareness of and appreciation for the role professional local government managers play in leading effective, efficient, and ethical local governments and the value they bring to building great communities has been launched by ICMA, the International City/County Management Association.

The Ad Council and the Natural Resources Defense Council today launched “Save The Food,” a major national public service campaign to combat food waste from its largest source—consumers, who collectively waste more food than grocery stores, restaurants or farms. The initiative hopes to encourage consumers to reduce the amount of food they trash in their homes, thereby saving the water, energy and money that are lost along with it. Watch the TV ad here.
“As it turns out, we can’t blame the epidemic of food waste on our kids’ aversion to vegetables. We’re all culprits here, tossing out staggering amounts of food in kitchens nationwide,” said NRDC President Rhea Suh. “But with small steps, we can save large amounts of food —and along with it, money and precious natural resources. The more food we save, the more we can share with hungry Americans, the more we can reduce climate pollution, and the more water won’t go to waste.”
In the U.S., 40 percent of all food goes uneaten each year, at a cost of $162 billion annually. Consumers are responsible for 40 percent of this waste—more than any other part of the supply chain. It’s a problem that costs the average family of four roughly $1,500 per year.

Spring not only brings warmer temperatures and sunnier days, but also a sense of renewal. For some, wedding bells will soon ring and tax refunds will finance new cars. When making such important life decisions, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) cautions consumers to take the time now, before a major purchase or life change, to fully protect themselves from the unexpected. The NAIC developed Get Ready resources to help consumers do just that.
