Of course we all say we want to use less plastic, but in the life of Beth Terry, author of Fake Plastic Fish, it's actually happening. Since June 2007, Terry has kept a running tally of the plastic that, despite her best efforts, finds its way into her life each week, from non-recyclable materials like granola bar wrappers, bread bags, and packing tape to recyclable juice bottles, frozen dinner trays, and pudding cups. She also attempts to keep new plastic out of her home (she claims she misses Haig's hummus most of all) and reuses or recycles the rest.
