Do you know how much garbage do you produce daily or weekly? Honestly, I have no idea so when I spotted Gregg Segal’s photo project my heart literally sank! Gregg cleverly photographed people from different social backgrounds lying in their weekly load of trash. The rather shocking concept is aimed to make us realize how much we waste and maybe encourage us to make better choices in the future. I spent last night examining each and every one of those images and I’m gobsmacked how little fruit and veggies people actually eat. Thoughts? xo

P.P.S: How much food people eat per day!

I noticed the lack of fruit peels too but also the overwhelming amount of pre-packed foods. Sad. Jill
ughh i would dread to see what our garbage pile would look like. xo jillian - cornflake dreams
Wow, these images are both so well done, and so disturbing. We do create an awful lot of garbage, and there seems to be more magazines than food.

I looked at more of Gregg's work, it's so hard-hitting and beautiful! Looking at the contents of people's trash is pretty eye opening! I wonder what mine would look like?! And makes me want to start composting. xo, Katie
Good eye, Jill!
Totally true, Lyddie!
Same here, Katie! I am totally thinking about composting nowadays...
