A Year of No Garbage with Eve Schaub

In her book, A Year of No Garbage, Eve Schaub recounts her attempt to live a year without creating waste — unexpectedly, during a pandemic. Her journey leads her to truths she had never encountered: Plastic recycling is a lie, compostables aren’t compostable, and plastic drives climate change, fosters racism, and poisons the environment, as well as our bodies, at alarming rates. Eve will join Bill McKibben, Beyond Plastics Founder Judith Enck, and WAMC’s Joe Donahue on Sunday, October 1, at 2 p.m. at the Southern Vermont Arts Center’s Arkell Pavilion, Manchester, VT 05255. With Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine. (For more info, see BeyondPlastics.org; eveschaub.com)
