Trash Talk: An Eye-Opening Exploration of Our Planet's Dirtiest Problem

This book is an illustrated look at the world of trash, or rather our world of trash including the systems by which we manage and dispose of it. Author Iris Gottlieb explores the nitty gritty of what many people are apt to ignore or otherwise are too preoccupied to consider—the truth around trash. She’ll cover the practical low-down on how the global trash production system works and its role in climate change, but she’ll also go into some interesting history such as how the Mafia managed the NYC sanitation system. The book shines a light on sets of imperfect systems, histories, the trash floating in pace, all through captivating illustration to help the reader better understand refuse, litter, trash.
