Redneck ASMR Burning Trash on a Nice Day
Ah the smell and freedom of country living, none of this silly recycling or garbage hauling crap. I so love burning shit!
the science of artificial reefs : Short Wave : NPR
Helicopters. Cargo containers. Old washing machines. For years, fishermen dumped this waste into the Gulf of Mexico. But they weren't just trying to get rid of junk; they were trying to create artificial reefs that would help attract fish. For this month's Nature Quest, WWNO coastal reporter Eva Tesfaye takes a (metaphorical) dive into the gulf to find out if Alabama's ocean junkyard is an economic – and environmental – solution.
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.

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.
