Don’t Throw It All Away: Park Spark Project & American Wasteland
From: Alex Wise
Series: Sea Change Radio
Length: 29:00
This week’s guests on Sea Change Radio both are waste crusaders in their own unique ways. First, host Alex Wise speaks with conceptual artist Matthew Mazzotta about his Park Spark Project, which shows how dog poop can be used to make electricity using methane digesters. Then we hear from Jonathan Bloom, a food waste expert, blogger and author of American Wasteland, who has unearthed some frightening realities about the amount of food we waste from field to fridge.
