Description
The Waste Between Our Ears by Gerry Gillespie offers a practical solution to restore our world's ecosystems and vital soils. By changing how we think about waste management, Gillespie argues that we can create a global approach to saving the world and growing a local economy.
Through chapters on source separation, soil management, climate change, and zero-waste approaches, Gillespie presents a logical argument for reducing waste. He explains how collecting waste as source-separated products could return more than half of it to soils as quality compost and biological products, with the remainder recyclable or reusable.
With real-world examples of successful waste reduction initiatives, Gillespie shows that this approach is already being achieved in parts of the world. By thinking differently about waste management, we can make a significant impact on our environment and local economy.
