Running the Numbers--Chris Jordan Photography


Photo: ©Chris Jordan Photographic Arts
This has been out there for a while, so you may have already seen it. It's an artist's attempt to provide a visual representation of the massive quantities of material we consume: paper, cans, cars, plastic cups, etc.--as well as other astonishing numerical facts about our society. It's quite amazing. Please pass it on to others, especially to kids, who love this kind of thing and get it right away. Click here for Chris Jordan Photography.com

I know where some of those sites are in Seattle, even photographed a few, but no photo turned out with remotely the impact. Nice find, Big Chuck.

That is fascinating--and disturbing.

Ties right in with The Story of Stuff. What are we doing?
