| "Rampant consumerism has inundated our planet with pollution and waste, yet attempts to create environmentally friendly forms of consumption are often co-opted by corporations. Christine Harold investigates the attachments we form to the objects we buy, keep, and discard, exploring how these attachments might be marshaled to create less wasteful practices and balance our consumerist and ecological impulses"-- |
