Garbology by Edward Humes Ch.12 Review

    We have not failed to save our Planet just yet. There if still hope for us to step up and take responsability for correcting our wrongs. In this chapter Humes writes about the Johnson family. The Johnson family is a family that has made it there mission to like a waste free life. But they were not always aware of how to like waste free as they were just like us once. Blinded by ads and media to shop and not knowing about the overflow of trash issue we face. It wasn't until they moved to another home that they saw how much trash they consume and items they don't need or want anymore. I know if i were to move out of my apartment I would feel the same. Even when it comes to spring cleaning, that can make you think twice about shopping. So now the Johnson's do whatever they can to reduce waste, from taking glass jars to put food in from farmers markets to using biodegradable tooth brushes from Australia. The Johnson's looks so strange because most of it is empty looking do to the lack of junk they have. Despite the Johnson's lifestyle many people were nasty to them thinking that the Johnson's thought they were perfect when that wasn't the case what so ever. Instead of us hating on people who are trying to save our world, we should look up to them and use them as an example. For they can make our future possible.
