This picture caught my eye as I was browing the web this morning. This essentially sums out the amount of over consumption taking place not only in the United States, but also across the world. It is imparitive for the people to being thinking about over consumption and how harmful it may be the the planet. The question arises, where will all of these products go? I think our answer could begin with educating people. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe more pictures such as these could generate hype across businesses, college campuses, schools, or even on community busses. The most important aspect I have found in my short time in taking a Sustainability class is to educate. Many people feel they need to change their daily schedules and their lives, but in all reality it can be as simple as turning off your lights or unplugging appliances when they are not in use.
