I’m super excited to have received the opportunity to talk about Year of No Garbage in Newsweek. Please check it out and let me know your thoughts.

Two notes: Bear in mind that I did not choose the stock image of oil being poured back into a plastic bottle- because of microplastics I would never recommend doing this. (Use glass containers- with fully cooled oil- instead.) And, sadly, the last line of the article didn’t make the final cut- in which I asked folks to contact their political representatives and ask them to support measures that reduce plastic waste… perhaps the most important take-away from our Year of No Garbage.

Nevertheless- I’m delighted to have this message out there on such a terrific forum!
