My new book Garbology: Our Dirty Love Affair With Trash came out this week. Highlights include my conversation with Terry Gross on National Public Radio's Fresh Air, and CNN's report on my visit to L.A.'s Garbage Mountain -- one of the many colorful settings in Garbology.

Update: Garbology also is featured in the Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, Los Angles Times, and elsewhere; get the full Media Update here.

Book Giveaways: Visit the Garbology Facebook Page and you'll automatically be entered in a drawing for a signed copy of Garbology if you like the page or leave a comment sharing your favorite tip for being less wasteful. The drawing is May 5.

Meanwhile, over at Frugalista.com, Natalie McNeal also has a Garbology giveaway underway.
