This is NOT a tree. . .

After reading the introduction, my wrists are sprained from holding up such a heavy book, just kidding. But I really do like the material that the book is made out of. I think it's cool to think that if I wanted to read this book in a pool that I could. I thought the first opening pages were a little intense. I guess I really never thought about all of the objects around us that are harmful. It does make sense to produce things that are better for the environment and I guess I don't understand why we don't do that. Is it easier and cheaper to make things that are bad for the environment? Or are people just that oblivious to the harm that these products are creating? If we continue to make harmful products, how long before it creates serious problems on earth?
