-- Book Release --
Dave and I are thrilled to announce that the first e-book in the Trash Talk - It's Easy To Be Green series is now available. This e-book series is based on the original internationally published column and paperback book; 10% of the proceeds support non-profit organizations!
Just this morning, I received a message from our publisher announcing that people can now obtain a copy via this link: http://booklocker.com/books/4968.html This is so new, that I haven't had a chance to update our website yet! I'll get on that right away, though. I've taken the liberty to include a description of the first e-book in the Trash Talk - It's Easy To Be Green series below:
Trash Talk - It's Easy To Be Green, Book One empowers you to do what we all should be doing all the time – decreasing your landfill contribution. Imagine if you could see all the trash you generated in your whole lifetime trailing behind you like a human jet stream of filth. All the baby food containers, diapers, packaging, bottles, cans – all of it. Then think of the smell from the organic food waste you generated throughout your entire life. It would be overwhelming to say the least. With this in mind you begin to realize that we all have a jet stream we left behind somewhere and you get an idea why it is so important to Re-think how we perceive waste. If we all could do a lot better at decreasing our own personal jet streams just imagine how much cleaner the world could be. If everyone could simply cut back a small percentage of their contribution to the landfills it would make a huge difference! Trash Talk will give you the knowledge to do that and better!
By recycling alone you can reduce your garbage by 30%! With the tricks and tips outlined in this book you will be shown how to take it further and find a use for many items instead of recycling them, thus extending their term of usefulness - sometimes indefinitely. Now by doing this you are also cutting back on your blue bin contribution to the recycling industry too.
Imagine having a use for most of the items you have formally thrown away all your life. From a plastic bag to a disposable cup or even a broken swing-set, Trash Talk - It's Easy To Be Green, Book One deals with hundreds of things around the home and office that can be refashioned into something useful. Old eyeglasses can be donated to third-world causes, broken teapots become a home for frogs in the garden and of course we all know an old tire becomes a backyard swing. You don't need a lot of money or time. There are no special tools needed that wouldn't be around any household. All that you require is a desire to cut down on your contribution to the landfill. Once you start to Re-think the way you shop, you avoid the non-recyclable packaging that comes wrapped around most consumer goods. By starting small with one thing at a time it is easy to change your habits and before you know it you will be looking at everything carefully before throwing it away!
