Zero Waste - Two-Week Challenge
Every once in a while you hear something that makes you want to take action.
Tess Vigeland did an interview on American Public Media the other day explaining her project: To carry her own trash (except for the recyclables) in a plastic bag for a full two weeks. Think about that! It will make you reconsider your purchases, certainly. It may make you wish you didn't have a cat. If you do in fact take the challenge, you will make some changes to your lifestyle. Small, perhaps, but changes that, when duplicated by many individuals, could really make a big change in our environment.
If you didn't hear the show, you really must listen. Click here to choose to listen online or download an MP3.
Tess also kept a blog during the two week project.
