"A helpful, well-written guide to making the most of recycling and composting."—Kirkus Reviews

Have you heard that recycling is broken? Let’s fix it.

If you want to reduce the amount of waste you generate but aren’t sure where to begin, Rethink the Bins shows you how. You will gain knowledge so you can:

• Understand what happens to waste after the bins leave your curb or building
• Implement best practices for recycling and composting
• Feel empowered to start with small changes that make a difference
• Create SMART goals around waste reduction and recycling

“This well-researched guide clears up the many myths and mysteries of what happens to the nearly 8 pounds of trash we Americans each create daily,” says author James Dillehay. “It should be required reading to help future generations embrace a circular economy.”

When you're done reading this book and completing the waste tracking worksheets, you will:

• Know how to better manage your waste at home and away
• Feel more confident that the items you toss into recycling and compost bins are actually being recycled or composted

Figuring out what to toss where is not as hard as it might seem. Once you have made changes at home, you will probably want to share the message with your friends and neighbors. Please do!

One person or one family can make a tiny difference. Thousands or millions of households doing the same can change the world.

Let's pave a path to a less wasteful future and recycling that works!
