A Share the Earth Environmental Event
An Evening with Heather Rogers, Author of Gone Tomorrow: The Hidden Life of Garbage
Wednesday, October 3, 7pm, Union Art Gallery
In conjunction with the Union Art Gallery exhibition Contesting Urban Restrictions: The Work of Adam and Julian Correa
Journalist Heather Rogers addresses the issues of how the world has become so filled with trash and how the United States became the world's number one producer of garbage. Excavating the history of rubbish handling from the 1800s to the present, Rogers investigates the roots of today's waste-addicted culture. Combining a gripping expose with a potent argument for change, Rogers will trace the connections between modern industrial production, consumer culture, and our throwaway lifestyle.
