Sunday: Consumption

Well the most important thing I wanted accomplish for today's experiment was to see how much trash I produced. Surprisingly, it was very few, only a total of four items.  However, I realized that if hypothetically this was the average amount of trash I produced every day, in a year that becomes a substantial amount, about 1460 pieces of trash a year! So after today I realized that maybe I need to cut down on the amount of trash which I produce and limit the amount of stuff I buy because even though many products can be recycled, it is a much bigger impact if the items aren't purchased at all.
