Life Without Plastic

Life without plastic is a really interesting article.

"Amid a recent flurry of worrisome reports about plastic, a simple question came up: Could we live without it? Could my typical family - a mom, a dad, a 3-year-old girl and a 7-month-old boy - put aside the very material of American lives, the products that greet us after birth in the diapers we wear and usher us out at death in the body bags we are zipped into?"

Cool article! I'll have to try this - probably easier in Paris. I generate so much plastic waste in London - soooo much food stuff is in plastic here. Makes for a good argument for iTunes vs buying CDs. But so many people live in 'market-free' areas - or would have to drive far to get there.

Better a world without plastic than a world without Zinc!

Yeah, if there wasn't Zinc you might as well end it all. :)
