Happy Earth Day, friend! Every year, on April 22nd, millions of people around the world take part in making the Earth a cleaner and healthier place to live. At Waka, sustainability and preserving the environment have always been one of our core values. That's because when our founder, David, started the company, he quickly learned that processing coffee produces a ridiculous amount of water waste. In fact, a single cup of coffee takes about 140 liters of water to grow, process, and transport the beans. That's a whole bathtub of water needed for just one cup of coffee! So to give back to the environment, we created our "Add Water, Give Water" program. Through this program, we donate a percentage of our profits to charity: water which brings clean drinking water to 26 countries including Africa, Asia, Central, and South America.

About 20 million Americans showed their support and it soon became the first official Earth Day.  Earth Day went global in 1990, twenty years after the first It's known as "International Mother Earth Day" around the world.  The United Nations General Assembly came up with the name in 2009, although it never stuck in America.  Texas banned homeless encampments, so a guy made one on his property Last summer, the 43-year-old father and local business owner, Josiah Ingalls, began allowing people to pitch tents or park RVs on the land he shares with his family and their many sheep and chickens in Cedar Creek, about 45 minutes outside of downtown Austin.  Photo courtesy of Vice News Read more. 21-year-old chihuahua breaks world record as oldest dog alive Born on Jan. 9, 2001, TobyKeith was 21 years and 66 days old when Guinness World Records confirmed he was the oldest dog alive.

Scientists use sound to destroy half of liver tumors in rats Noninvasive sound technology developed at the University of Michigan breaks down liver tumors in rats, kills cancer cells, and spurs the immune system to prevent further spread. By destroying only 50% to 75% of liver tumor volume, the rats' immune systems could clear away the rest. Photo courtesy of Michigan Engineering Read more.
