Americans
overeating
Continued from pg. 1
Jeanice Gruntorad,
president of the UNL
Student Dietetics Assoc.,
said she believes a food
shortage exists, but is not
visible in the United
States. Despite the recent
surge of publicity, she
said most citizens remain
skeptical and need to
wake up to the problem.
In hopes of setting an
example for other organ
izations to follow, Grun
torad said her club is no
longer. serving refresh
ments at their meetings.
; She said Americans
should recognize the pre- .
occupation with food.
"Our society is too
food-oriented," she said.
"For instance, students
are always going out to
get a pizza or ham
burger." Ruth Moore, another
club member, agreed,
"What would you do at
a party if no food was
served?" she asked. If a
hostess would sacrifice
refreshments, Moore
; said, she could save her
self money and protect her
guests, from the dangers
of overeating.
n A healthy human being
' requires. only 50 grams of
protein daily, Moore ex
plained, but an average
;; American consumes twice
that amount.
"Hunger is rampant in
a major part of the world's
nations but the major
probfemTm '.'therrtJrS.' . is

Moore said that since
Americans are consuming ;
too much protein, they f

"Grain fed to cattle
could then be fed directly
to the people who need
it," she said.
"If the choice is not
made freely by us to cut
down on eating," Moore
warned, "the choice will
be forced on us by starv
ing nations."

We asked the same question when we first
found ourselves in a position to make the world
a more livable place. .
At Kodak, we started close to home. In
Rochester, New York. We cut river pollution with .
one of the most efficient industrial waste water
treatment plants in the country. We cut air pollu
tion with scrubbers, adsorbers and electrostatic
precipitators. We helped set up a black enter
prise program in downtown Rochester.
Why? Helping to combat water pollution not .
only benefits society but us as well as we need
clean water to make film. Our combustible waste
disposal facility not only reduces air pollution
but also heips pay for itself in heat and steam

production and silver recovery. The black enter-,
prise program not only helps people who aren't
well off but also helps stabilize communities, in
which Kodak can work and grow.
'In short, it's simply good business,-And
we're in business to make a profit. But in further
ing our business interests, we also further so-1
ciety's interests.
' After all, our business depends" on society.
So we care what happens to it. ' - ,
