Trash Talk: An Edge Life interview with Dave and Lillian Brummet
Edge Life, April 2007 by Tim Miejan
Just begin to make a difference, no matter how large or small, in reducing the amount of trash you generate. That's the encouragement that authors Dave and Lillian Brummet of British Columbia, Canada, give to their readers ñ and to anyone who will listen. They know firsthand that, if motivated, anyone can make small changes to do their part for the Earth.
The couple don't believe in wasting time playing the blame game. They provide encouragement and positivity throughout their book Trash Talk, which was published in 2004 to provide specific ways in which people can reuse waste materials and reduce their consumption of resources. Originally a biweekly newspaper column, Trash Talk generated into a single resource that is being used in classrooms and by individuals and families to make a real difference in the world, and save money at the same time. Honored by the Recycling Council of British Columbia, Trash Talk also has been praised in Britain, the United States, South Africa, Japan and the Netherlands.
