"Our enormously productive economy… demands that we make consumption our way of life, that we convert the buying and use of goods into rituals, that we seek our spiritual satisfaction, our ego satisfaction. In consumption… we need things consumer, burned up, replaced, and discarded at an ever-accelerating rate."

Much of garbage cannot be recycled
Sustainability, renewable energy, local economies
