When I first faced the facts, I couldn’t believe how something as innocuous as our garbage could be negatively connected to so many of my personal concerns.
I wanted to stop being part of the problem. I had to address my own trash problem first. My

In my zero-waste journey, I realized we lived in a world with LANDFILL destined products.
Toothbrushes for instance- 4.7 billion of them end in the landfill every year, and take 200-700 years to start decomposing. So every toothbrush you and I have ever produced is sitting on our planet somewhere!
