NASA has stated that the ISS crew has more than enough supplies and that they will continue to press forward with SpaceX toward their goals.

Sustainable Lego
The toy company Lego has promised to spend one billion Danish Krone to try and find something sustainable to build their bricks from rather than plastic. In 2014 alone, sixty billion Lego elements were manufacturered. That's a lot of plastic. They have given themselves until 2030 to achieve this. Let's hope they don't settle on digital bricks only!
