Sunday Dec 9: Reduce, Recycle, Revue!
FREE SCREENING of Garbage! The Revolution Starts at Home

Two years ago, local filmmaker Andrew Nisker convinced his friends the McDonald family to stop throwing out their garbage.

Their experience with an accumulating pile of trash over three months and the story of where our hyper-consumerism and wasteful lifestyles lead is the subject of Nisker's just-released documentary: "Garbage! The Revolution Starts at Home."

The Revue offers a FREE SCREENING Sunday, Dec. 9 at 2 p.m. Nisker and the McDonald family mother-daughter team will attend the screening for questions and discussion. Councillor Gord Perks, who's interviewed in the film, will also drop by.

I duno if I want to see this...

"The McDonalds have altered their lifestyle after generating 83 bags of trash and 145 kilos of compost in 12 weeks. Come get inspired to go green for the holiday season."

WTF? A single couple, 83 bas in 12 weeks??? That is like 6 bags of trash a week. That is so disgustingly wasteful to me I find it revolting.

Me and my wife generate 0.75-1 bag / week ABSOLUTE MAX. And we don't even compost lately since our bin broke! When we used to compost we had like, 1/4 a bag maybe a week.

And it isn't like we're enviro-nazis.
