So I read the article my professor gave us to read, and it was very interesting , it was mainly and interview of Mr. Edward Humes. Terry Gross , Humes' interviewer, ask Mr. Humes a lot of interesting question. For example "You say Americans throw away more trash that anyone, how much more is it?" Edwards responses where the same facts he gave in his book. But while going through this article what I read and what surprised me was that the Puente Hills Landfill was not only the bugest but has been around for over 60 years now, and it keeps growing fast , its at 500 feet tall! "It actually filled a valley that used to be a dairy farm and is now a mountain built of trash". So many intersting an annoying things it talks about, but one of the really intersting parts I read was that we use the greenhouse gas produced by the dumbs to make energy, but the really annoying part is that if we want energy as a goal, we should be using the trash that we are putting in the dumps and using them in power plants and we would be creating morw energy with the same amount of trash. It was really intersting learn thing I didnt know..
