Smolders
Many of us take our garbage and toss it in a garbage can. We somehow want to deny it's existence. That trash can goes out to the curb and a big automated trash machine takes it away to the landfill, far from our own site. Or maybe if you live in the country, you know a little bit a more about trash.
You've probably burn it yourself, smelled all those toxins burn, and watched it flash up into flame. But have you sat and watched it smolder for those countless hours as those man made products are destroyed? All that hard work being consumed by flame and being reduced to ash just so you can continue to consume precious resources.

Zero Waste Industry.
So much of the zero-waste movement is caught up in consumerism …
I am often appalled by the embrace of consumerism by the zero waste movement — the bamboo tooth brushes, the metal straws, the compostable and organic products — that are hallmarks of the industry movement. Rather then a focus on reducing consumption, making do with what you have, saving and investing, buying in bulk and with less packaging.
From Farm to Trash
A picture of a styrofoam egg carton that blew away from the barn. We reuse old egg cartons at our farm for the sale of eggs, as new egg cartons are expensive, and a waste of resources to keep sending them to the landfill.
