No offense, but I had trouble reading this because I got so distracted by the inane amount of waste on day 9 (JFK->SYR->JFK). I wish the US wasn't so obsessed with the all you can eat buffet of life...
In fact, if he's really skinny he might actually be doing the world a favor. With 2/3 of the US overweight the chances are pretty good that the airline would have sold the ticket to someone fatter...
There are so many other things to get your underthings wadded about, I just don't understand the negativity about how this kid's chosen to spend his month.

I don't understand why, in a time when we should be dealing with the problem of climate change, a project that celebrates the pointless use of resources and emission of CO2 is seen as acceptable. Pretending irresponsibility has no consequences isn't positive.
I doubt that when he conceived of this month long project, he had a "celebration of wasting resources" in mind. It was probably more like, "I'm going to meet some cool people and fly to 50 cities".
