Last week I read
about a couple who have embarked on a year long journey to reduce their
garbage. I believe their goal is to put out just 4.5 pounds of garbage
for the year - the same amount the average American (and likely
Canadian) - puts out in a week. They've begun composting in
their yard, going straight to the source to buy items such as cheese to
reduce waste from packaging and they've done A LOT of research. Their
project is both commendable for the effect it will have on our world,
but also because they are blogging
the whole thing so everyone else can learn tips and tricks and ways to
reduce their own waste without having to do any of the legwork!
I applaud you Amy and Adam Korst. Good luck with your project!
