  society needs to find ways to reduce our energy
  consumption. The food pyramid is a prime example
  of energy transfer within individual ecosystems
  and the biosphere. As you increase the trophic
  levels, a greater amount of energy is lost. Some
  environmentalists argue that humans should eat a
  vegetarian diet in order to conserve energy.

  Involvement
• Business - General Business
• Voluntary vs. Regulatory Involvement. Affluence
  leads to overconsumption and increased waste.
  Governments, industries, and individuals have
  contributed to the lack of environmental
  sustainability. Actions must be taken immediately
  to alter our wasteful ways. The government has
  developed programs to help reduce energy
  consumption. However, the majority of these
  programs are voluntary, such as the Energy Star
  Program. Should the government continue to
  develop voluntary programs or do more drastic
  actions employing regulations that enforce
  compliance of governments, industries, and
  individuals be instituted?
