To eliminate waste, we need to rediscover thrift, Andrew Dent

There s no such thing as throwing something away, says Andrew Dent when you toss a used food container, broken toy or old pair of socks into the trash, those things inevitably end up in evergrowing landfills. But we can get smarter about the way we make, and remake, our products. Dent shares exciting examples of thrift the idea of using and reusing what you need so you don t have to purchase anything new as well as advances in material science, like electronics made of nanocellulose and enzymes that can help make plastic infinitely recyclable.
