I have always wanted to know why some Tufts students walk around campus carrying a gallon of Poland Spring water. Do they stockpile gallons, or refill them? Aren’t they bulky and cumbersome? Yet, tracking down an answer was easier said than done. From the gear and uniforms, it’s obvious that these gallons are accessories sported by players on a men’s athletics team.

Many cheap office chairs can make you feel as if you’ve been crammed into a torturous economy seat on a cross-country flight.

I’m not one to run, unless it’s toward an ice cream truck or away from a brain-ravenous zombie. Yet with an under-desk treadmill, I have little excuse to avoid exercise because I can take a quick walk from the comfort of my home office.

The dirty little secret of so-called recyclable plastic is that most of it isn’t actually recycled (PDF), despite what the container might say. Most of it ends up in landfills or as litter and breaks down into microplastics and nanoplastics that pollute waterways, soils, and even the deep sea, making its way up the food chain back to people. The global plastic pollution problem isn’t on individuals alone—not by a long stretch. But humans do contribute to this problem, and you can make a difference.

Thanks to everyone for their patience regarding my responses. I've been hospitalized since March. I had a stroke and a double lung transplant surgery due to advance respiratory disease. https://t.co/tQqx0aAmEF
