First I will summarize an excerpt out of Heather Roger's essay, Gone Tomorrow: The Hidden Life of Garbage published in 2005. Second I will summarize Lars Eighner essay On Dumpster Diving published in 1995. Our government needs to immediately enforce a set of strict standardized laws that carefully regulate and monitor the disposal of todays and more importantly tomorrow trash. I will argue that this is necessary for large corporations and businesses to deduce their consumption. Finally I will argue that we need to educate the public about the importance and need to restrict our consumption to secure our future.

A quote often used is, "One person’s trash is another person’s treasure.” This describes Eighner’s feelings perfectly. At one point he stated, "People throw away perfectly good stuff, a lot of perfectly good stuff."(384) This proves the point that once someone throws something away, it doesn't mean it is trash, just ready for a change of ownership. Eighner few dumpster diving as an art because of all the cool stuff he finds on a regular. Things such as: clothes, type writer, love letters, ragdolls et cetera. He mentioned that he hardly ever pick up things without envisioning the

Eighner states, “I have learned much as a scavenger... beginning with the practical art of Dumpster diving and proceeding to the abstract.” He begins here as introduction to his text, just before he states that it's, “an urban art.” Showing his views about the activity more as a craft than something gross. Later on, Eighner proceeds to say, “But in the case of discards from student apartments, the answer may be that the item was discarded through carelessness, ignorance, or wastefulness.” Eighner explains that dumpster diving isn’t all bad because there can be use of someone else's trash. As the old saying goes, “One's man's trash can be another man's treasure.” Eighner’s purpose of this text is point out that even though dumpster diving may sound gross there is a plus side to it.

In Safford Arizona school on October 8th, officials strip-searched a 13-year-old girl after they received information from another student that the girl possessed "prescription strength" 400 mg ibuprofen and 200mg naproxen. While attending math, assistant principle Kerry Wilson entered the classroom and instructed Savanna Redding's to his office. Upon entering, she immediately noticed her planner placed on his desk. However, what she didn't recognize was the knife, cigarette and lighter that was contained inside it. Admitting the planner was hers, she explained to the assistant principle that she had lent the planner prior to her classmate, Marissa and had NO knowledge of what

In the American society, a lot of things are being thrown away. Sometimes those things that is been tossed are still valuable to us. There are also times that people that dumpster dive are not all homeless or poor anymore. I don’t think this changes people’s thinking dumpster diving will raise awareness neither will reduce the amount of stuff thrown away. I think is it simply showing that we can not control what is being thrown out and from being a throwaway society. The essay “Dumpster Diving” by Lars Eighner talks about his own experience of living out of a dumpster. In his essay, it illustrates how wasteful people can be sometimes. people not only throwing food but also furniture, clothing and other household items.

- Though a company that handles the physical trash removal will take the trash away, you could be left with a considerable mess to clean up on your own. Often, the company will remove all of the garbage, but some debris gets left behind. If you do not check with the company, there is a good chance that they will tell you they are not responsible for clean-up. So, make sure that you ask them this and hold them accountable if necessary.

Many individuals are accustomed to waste at least a portion of what they buy, whether it is food, clothes, furniture, supplies, or materials worldwide. According to the article: “On Dumpster Diving” many valuable items were found by the homeless who searched the dumpster for food.

On a daily basis we walk past several dumpsters – even though we may not see them. In the cities (mostly big and populated states) like the following: Los Angles, Boston, Chicago, Seattle, and New York City, there are over thousands of dumpsters in the alley-ways. As humans we walk by smelling the odor coming from the trash, and continue walking. In Lars Eighner’s “On Dumpster Diving” he will inform us about what he thinks and believes on the subject of dumpster diving.

On August 5, 2016 at 6:20 am I held Aaron Mills after the morning check in to discuss a situation that arose at Annandale High School. Present at the meeting was Craig Carney, Liaison and Steve Passino, HVAC Supervisor. The previous day Aaron was responding to a service call for the Athletic Directors office area Rooftop B1. Upon arrival at the jobsite I twice questioned Aaron if he had thoroughly checked out the Rooftop unit. Aaron responded “YES”. I then asked if he had checked the Freon charges in the system and Aaron responded “NO” as this is critical to a units operation. Prior to our arrival Aaron had informed Joe Lanham and Ed Bowler that everything was checked out on the Rooftop unit. While inspecting Rooftop B1 Steve Passino asked

The petitioner Graham, in this case, is a diabetic man who has asked his friend Berry to drive him to the convenience store to counteract his onset insulin reaction by purchasing a container of orange juice. Seeing the number of people in the store upon his arrival, petitioner Graham hurries back out to the car Berry is currently waiting for him in, asking Berry to drive him over to one of his friend’s houses instead. A city officer respondent Connor grew uncertain witnessing petitioner Graham quickly enter and exit the store, so he followed Berry’s car making an investigative stop, telling the two of them to stand by while Officer Connor gathers the details of what had happened in the store. Upon backup police officers arrival on scene, Graham was put into handcuffs, sustaining multiple injuries while the officers ignored any

Dumpster Diving: Beneficial Yet Detrimental When people think about dumpsters, a disgusted image of wretched odors, tornadoes of flies, and spilled sour liquids comes to their minds. In addition, they stay away from dumpsters, fearing they would catch some type of illness. Yet, people don’t know that dumpsters has all types of treasures.

In America, while homelessness and poverty runs rampant, while war veterans and Phds find themselves on the streets, while the price of living and the ability to find food for America’s poorest grows ever more difficult, we, as a culture, still look upon practices like dumpster diving as disgusting and believe them to be only practiced by the lowest and most uneducated of American society. This is no longer a practical image of the practice or the people behind it. As poverty is ever prevalent in the United States, many are forced to find food outside of conventional needs, especially in a culture that exceedingly devalues assistance to the poor. Simultaneously, with rampant consumerism and our propensity to throw

Marilyn said she went in to use the bathroom, get the old bread that she said she was told she could have by another lady, and went to sit down when he asked her to leave. She said she has the right to be there at the AA meeting because the Borough of Shenandoah has her listed as an alcoholic. I asked why she didn't leave after he asked her to and she first said because she has the right to be there and later saying she wanted to get the old coffee grounds. I asked why she wanted the old coffee grounds and she said so that she could place them in different areas that needed a more acidic ground cause some things need more acidicy. I asked her to
