If you want to reduce the amount of waste you generate but aren’t sure where to begin,  Rethink the Bins shows you how. This book will help you:

  • Create SMART goals around waste reduction and recycling.

You will feel empowered to start with  small changes that make a difference and become more confident that the items you toss  into recycling and compost bins are actually being recycled or composted. 

Once you have made changes at home, you will probably want to share the message with  your friends and neighbors. One person or one family can make a tiny difference. Thousands or millions of households doing the same can change the world.
