EN SAVOIR PLUS Résumé

Humans create mountains of garbage, but did you know you can use that waste to help the planet?

You can heat your house with poop, make coffee with filtered pee and blow your nose with your cereal box. People around the world are finding creative ways to transform food scraps, invasive plants and sea creatures into alternative fossil fuels and even plastics. There are cities reusing water and recycling paper, crops, and old clothes to help protect the land, forests and water.

In What a Waste, young readers will learn about cutting-edge projects to reuse and repurpose garbage, and the people behind these innovations. Do you want to become a waste warrior? Don't just talk trash, reuse it!

The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.

Key Selling Points:

  • This forward-looking STEM book explores how we can use garbage to fight the effects of the climate crisis, and protect land, forests and water everywhere.
  • Young people around the world are living with more floods, wildfires and other effects of climate change. A global survey in the Lancet reported that almost 60 percent of young people are “very worried” about climate change, and eco-anxiety among kids is on the rise.
  • According the UN Environment Programme, humans create more than 2 billion tons of garbage every year. We make more than 400 million tons of plastic, and two thirds of that becomes trash.
  • This book introduces young readers to innovative projects around the world that are using garbage to help the planet and gives readers practical actions they can take to waste less at home.
  • Karen Tam Wu is a lifelong advocate for clean energy policies and nature conservation. She's a member of the BC government’s Climate Solutions Council and is a board member of the Metro Vancouver Zero Emissions Innovation Centre.
