Total Garbage by Rebecca Donnelly dives into the messy truth about
trash, garbage, waste, and our world--it's a fact-filled and
fascinating illustrated middle grade environmental read! Trash has
been part of human societies since the beginning. It seems like the
inevitable end to the process of making and using things--but why?
In this fascinating account of the waste we make, we'll wade into
the muck of history and explore present-day STEM innovations to
answer these important questions: What is garbage? Where does our
garbage come from? Why do we make so much garbage? Where does our
garbage go? What can we learn from our garbage? How bad is our
garbage problem? How can we do better? Rebecca Donnelly tackles the
extraordinary, the icky, and the everyday, helping us see how our
choices, personal and societal, impact our world and our
planet--and encouraging us make a change. Back matter includes a
timeline of the history of waste management, selected bibliography,
and index.
