Rethinking Waste

Rethinking waste is a constant process, even for those of us with a lot of practice and determination. When the zipper on my boots broke, I considered them regretably ready for the landfill. Until... UNTIL a shifted paradigm stimulated new and creative thinking. I attached a mechanic's jump ring to the faulty zipper with results that may even look better than the original, don't you think?
Score a win for the landfill and bank account. Score a loss for the country that no doubt made these with inequitable trade agreements and dubious environmental practices. WooHuu! Winning the war on waste one new thought at a time!.
