waste generated collectively over time is really scary, and this isnt even the totality of it. im keeping all these for my students to make work with in the future.
been reading up a lot about waste management for a project I'm doing for school & trying to be more conscious about the things I throw away. I'm not one of those who has been particularly environmentally conscious, but I think making changes in little steps has always been how I do things. I'm just trying to
1. think before I buy anything - do I really need it? can I make it? can I get it from someone else?
2. think before I throw - can this be used again? can I generate other uses for it? can my students make art out of it in the future?
and it's not to say that I'm super green cos I don't think anyone would even call me that, and I still buy things I don't need or throw without thinking sometimes out of convenience, or moments that I can't be bothered, but I do want to take steps to be more conscious about how I can make a difference. And I really do think the little things add up!!! I encourage u to do the same too! Also it's really occured to me lately that it really takes time and a desire to research about the causes you are passionate about - and it's not easy, but it's very necessary if we want to make our world a better place!
