Over summer I started to write a fictional summary of an if-this-goes-on story set in my hometown in 2050.
I'm doing this as a way to get an idea of the future of waste rather than to write a book. A bit of fun.
Below is part 1 - the backgrounder. Part 2 will be next week.

If-this-goes-on stories
Works of waste prophecy part 1: Octavia E. Butler’s prophetic Parable predicted the catastrophic wildfires of 2024 LA. Have any fictional works predicted the if-this goes-on future of waste?

I’ve deleted two tech bro platform social media accounts. I’d like to do the rest by end-2025. As a comms person, it’s not an easy decision. A lot of the waste and circular economy people I follow aren’t here. And, I’ll miss looking back on the garden’s progress over the years. Like the hothouse…

The Circularity 2024 conference started in Sydney this morn. Wish I was there.
I spent a few weeks listening to the Circularity 2023 recordings. I puzzled the info together into 10 themes. A bit of a circular economy 101.
A cut and sewed a bathrobe out of old towels while listening in.

Tuesday Trash Talk is five months old.
I kicked it off in May this year to learn about what’s happening in waste, to find out where the good people are.
I made the commitment to do it for a year. It’s fun. I got to go on a tour of the Wagga Wagga tip shop.
