Chapter 3 BLOG!!!

Reading chapter 3 of Garbology was mind blowing!!!! Honestly I never thought about how corporations would try to estimate how long there products last. It surprises me even more that they were correct. So now when I go buy a new lab top I know its not going to last forever. Eventually it will burn out, which seriously sucks! Yet that was just one thing in chapter 3 that took my breath away. When Humes' mentioned all the facts about how people just waste and spend money on useless stuff that will last them no more than 6 months. Consumption is the main reason for our waste! So the average rate of human trash will be less if we consume less. Basically that's what he says  in chapter 3.
