With its easy hands-on design, Garbage Is Great contains information, little known facts, compelling graphics, and colorful illustrations and photos on a variety of common household waste-stream Plastics, Glass and Ceramics, Paper, Wood, Textiles, Metal, Rubber, and Organics.Tom Szaky, the founder of the award-winning nonprofit, environmental company TerraCycle, introduces each and explains what he’s learned about it in his personal life and with TerraCycle. He and Albe Zakes then provide a graphic historical timeline of each material's use in commercial goods—from how it’s manufactured to what happens when it’s throw out—an analysis of its impact on the environment now and tomorrow; suggestions for DIY projects to save it from the trash bin, and lists of helpful resources. They also include sidebars and definitions, fun and quirky facts, lists of reuse ideas, quotes, and illuminating interviews that add depth and insight.All of us have a responsibility to protect our environment. Informative and inspirational, Garbage Is Great shows us how to be creative custodians today—and for the rest of our lives.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"931\" data-end=\"1061\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"931\" data-end=\"1061\"\u003eSoft Cover\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Depot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46128684794055,"sku":null,"price":43.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/3740\/1031\/files\/E5A5CD83-034B-4FBB-9845-F0A15CAEC0C4_6531bb9b-ad16-4819-88ff-5879621997ae.png?v=1769532888","url":"https:\/\/upwellnessmarket.ca\/products\/book-make-garbage-great-tom-szaky-albe-zakes","provider":"Up Wellness Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
