RE: Rethinking "Normal" Part 3 - What About All the Trash?
Excellent post my friend. Teaching and training people to live consciously is the greatest task on the planet right now. Despite the signs of ignorance we may come across I do believe the tide is turning. More people are spending more time cleaning the beaches and oceans and planting trees than ever before. The clever recycling of plastics too is an incredible development occurring now at last people see a need to do it.
There will always be more people to educate on waste and we can help with that. This is a brilliant selfies of posts you are creating ..... lucky you went outside your garden life to your daughter’s wedding ( haha that in itself must be quite a lesson in when to educate and when to just observe. Education often has to come slowly, gracefully even if you feel overwhelmed by the scale of the job )
Resteeming this .... I can’t believe no-one has anything to say on the subject! It would be cool to see people’s answers to waste management generally.
Thanks for all your hard work 🤗😘🌈
So glad you are here giving your perspective @sallybeth23!!! I love hearing that there is hope and that the tides are turning. From my garden space it is (gratefully--for right now anyway!) difficult to see what others are doing. The lack of importance is quite astounding actually, though it is partially because people are so busy living their lives they don't have the time to dedicate to questioning things and then doing something about it. It is quite the challenge to find the balance out in the world of what to share, how deeply and when. As I live my life at the @gardenofeden we live to high standards daily, so gratefully we get to set an example by simply living!
I'm so glad for those who take the steps to plant the trees, clean up the plastics, etc., and who share their awareness and insight to make this world a better place. Thanks for sharing my posts and for taking the time to comment. I share these posts on FB too, and I have only a few consistent commenters--those who are already taking action in their own ways. Blessed to have you here.
