Travel Update & Book Review

I made it safe and sound to my destination and I didn’t have nearly as much waste as normal today.  I did use my water bottle (refillable) all day.  Note to you travelers: don’t fill it until you get past security since you can’t take liquids through.  I filled it at the nearest water fountain which was tricky when only a trickle of water came out of the spout.  Maybe next time I will fill it at a restaurant instead.  The only waste I had was from the wrapper of my taco’s that I had for lunch.  I even borrowed a book from the library instead of buying one at the airport. 

Today’s book is “The World Without Us” by Alan Weisman.  I’m only about 50 pages into the book but I want to read more.  It’s exactly what the title suggests; what would the world be like without us.  The writer is very vivid and his use of imagery is wonderful.  He has an extensive Bibliography section and a web site so I imagine I will be doing some homework when I’m done.  The only warning is that the book is pretty depressing and at the same time beautiful.  I will follow up with my review as I get deeper into the book but right now I’m intrigued with the chapter on NYC.  I didn’t realize how much of the ecosystem was changed to build the city. 

Alright, I’m off to find some dinner.  Stay green!
