Garbology by Edward Humes Ch.10 review

  In chapter 10 of Garbology Humes brings up a man named Andy Keller. Andy Keller is the founder of Chico bags. Chico bags are reusable bags that you can use when you go to the grocery store instead of plastic. This is an amazing product that is actually good for the Earth. The cool thing is that Keller got his inspiration to develop the bag after a visit to a land fill by his home. Keller noticed that there was a lot of Plastic bags in the landfill so he wanted to reduce the plastic waste in landfills. Whats cool about what Keller developed is that he saw something negative happening to our planet, and he stepped up to take action. If Keller can make a difference, then so can we. Even if it is by just using Chico bags. What was annoying about this chapter was how plastic bag companies were suing Keller for reducing plastic bag sells. All Keller did was bring to attention the issue that is the "Bag Monster", where he wore a full body suit of plastic bags. Its just so sick that their are people out there that care more about money than life. Besides what good is money if there is no world left to enjoy it with. Chico bags are the future, so lets use them and make a change for the better.
