A century ago, when many Americans still lived on a family farm, there was an adage – a saying – that everyone used; “Waste not, want not”. It was a concept that, by the 1950s, lost its meaning. By then, everyone wanted new, affordable luxuries. But, as Going Green producer Sandra Sleight (slight) - Brennan found out recently, “waste not want not” is a concept that may have come around again.
