Book Recommendation
Zero Waste Living, The 80/20 Way: The Busy Person’s Guide To A Lighter Footprint by Stephanie J. Miller
This slim volume is great for anyone with the goal of starting a zero waste lifestyle. The focus on making a few small changes rather than strict adherence to zero waste principles feels more realistic for busy families. Miller grounds her ideas in research and implores readers to do as much as they possibly can to reduce waste. One thing missing from Miller's minimalist approach is to seek out and purchase new products containing post-consumer recycled materials. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the zero waste movement.
