Food is precious, yet the irony is that a study found that 1/3 of food purchased in the UK ends up in the trash. Although no similar study has been conducted in Malaysia, one only needs to look at the amount of uneaten food left behind in restaurants to realize that Malaysians too waste food prodigiously.

To most of us, that old mobile phone languishing in the drawer is practically worthless. But to an electronic waste recycler, it is quite literally as precious as gold.

Global warming is the root of all evil. It is the reason behind the planet's rising temperature, and why we prefer to stay indoors in an air-conditioned room than to go outside and breathe in the fresh air (what fresh air?).

We're losing polar ice caps, experiencing flash floods, rising sea level and many other catastrophes all because of this phenomenon.
