BOOK REVIEW
Explores in depth the medicinal and magical properties of the many herbs, barks, and berries associated with the Christmas and Yuletide season.
mice, moles, voles, snakes, tortoises, ants, and bees “innocently attack the cover from above, while buried tires have a habit of rising from the dead to threaten the cover from below. So fragile are these systems, say landfill opponents, that so-called state-of-the-art landfills nearly delay — rather than eliminate — the massive pollution of groundwa- ter.” As a solution, they remain our “ultimate evidence of failure.” “Can zero waste mean anything,” the authors asks, “considering the limits of our recycling efforts and our reluctance to alter our life - styles and our purchasing habits?” Our actions must include creating markets for repurposed and recycled items. IBM and Hewlett-Packard are successful models to replicate and support. They both offer buy- back programs for their products for repurposing and recycling. Royte includes other very good advice for purchasing recycled products and for legislation supporting and enabling zero-waste policies and op - tions. She also provides an extensive bibliography of the resources she used to write this book.
