About Reinvent Your Waste

Every year, millions of tons of waste go to landfills across the country and are considered safely buried to decompose. Are there more innovative ways to recover waste and create greater value, economically speaking? Tyler explores this question extensively.  

Reinvent Your Waste covers the history of waste and garbage and the progression of waste management and recycling in the U.S. The book highlights four themes – respect, recover, reinvent, and restore, with each section offering insights and inspiration for anyone wanting to embrace sustainability practices, improve the way we live, and reduce our impact on the planet. 

Tyler will be holding a book signing at Fables Book Store in Goshen, IN, Feb 2nd, 6-8pm EST. Congrats, and thank you for being a strong environmental steward, Tyler!
