It was just picked up right away by people that were in the industry, promoting the industry or teaching within the industry of zero waste.  It took a while to get it in everyday households, to get people to become interested. Back then zero waste wasn’t really a thing – but it slowly evolved, as did our book which is now a 2 book series (2012) and the books can be found in households...

© Brummet Media Group Quote of the Day "Some books come to you....  they are bonuses,  gifts.  You do not have to kill some little part of your flesh to dredge them up.  This  is a fatal shade mystical,  but it is almost as if you are serving as agent for a book  which wants to get itself written.  So the author never knows what to think of such books when he is done.  His real fondness  — since writing books is the closest men ever come to childbearing —  is more for those books he delivered out of his own flesh,  torn and deadened by the process,  but able at least to use all art and craft,  all accumulated l ore."  ~ Norman Mailer   ~~~     Follow us & find our Books:   on Amazon Visit:   Drum It With Brummet Blog Subscribe:   Brummet Media​ YouTube Channel​  ​ ~~~
