Recycling, reducing, or reusing?  What do you think?

Recycle, reuse, reduce

So as I was perusing the web the other day, I came across this website of a guy that decided to sell garbage off of a challenge from a co-worker.

The argument was based on whether product packaging was important or not.  So this guy goes around New York collecting garbage and sells them in clear plastic display cases for a minimum of $50 a pop!

When I found the article, my first response was, damn!  I can't even sell a good idea for $10!  You're doing really good if you can market trash in this obvious of a way.  After thinking more about it though, I wondered, how does this fit into the environmental aspect of consumerism?

Do you think this is responsible reuse, reduce, and recycling?  Or just proving the point further that people will consume anything just to consume?  Are we addicted or helping here?  This is his creative and very interesting website, NYC Garbage.

I'd love to hear what you think in the comments below.

These stores are in our communities, are they defending the corporation or the community's well-being and right to be informed and healthy? 

If they are so proud of the GMO's, why don't they represent? ;)

Take action against no nuke plants.  It takes just a few minutes to send a pre-written letter to Obama and Congress. 

If you're unsure whether nuclear plants are a good alternative to a cleaner world, please check out this article from Green America, 10 Strikes Against Nuclear.

I found this article today on the effects of the herbicide, Round Up, made by Monsanto.  Please read through this article so you can see the risks and alternative choices for your home.  This herbicide is being sprayed everywhere in cities.  Please do you and your family a favor and stop buying it.  This also helps to curb American dollars going to monopoly corporations.  Please start "voting" organic.
Your kids, pets, and friends will thank you.

Here is another article from a group in Scotland discussing Round Up herbicide and what they found it doing to tadpoles.  Please visit this short article at, GM-Free Scotland.
