Description

Where is "away?" Environmental artist Bryant Holsenbeck had long wondered where trash goes when we throw it "away." Realizing that what we discard never really goes away, she began to worry about all the disposable plastic that piles up in landfills and clogs our streams. Bryant began sayaing NO to single use plastic, and she spent a year discovering ways to live without it. This book documents her journey and the creative alternatives she found.--
