Annotated Bibliography

Imhoff, Daniel. Paper or Plastic: Searching for Solutions to an Over packaged World. San Francisco: Sierra Club Books, 2005.

This book talked about Pros and Cons of different containers (Beverage containers, loose-fill packaging, transport pallets, bags, and fresh produce racks). It also talks about many ways that consumers can help reduce the little that is created.

The author is Daniel Imhoff, and he is a researcher, public speaker, and a publisher. He has spent 20 years on environmental issues, and conducts workshops to help educate people.

This book is helpful for my paper because it talks about the benefits and consequences of the different packaging materials and how they affect the earth. It is also useful because it gives case studies, some of which will be helpful in writing my longer paper.

I also found a few books that talked about both the pro's and con's concerning the issue I am researching. It is nice to be able to have both views from one source!
