Be a rebel by also doing your best to avoid the trash in the first place.

And most importantly, work to disassemble the systems that normalize and support the production of the wasteful and toxic materials we now call trash.

Are you suggesting that we should burn down companies and factories? Cuz I'd never agree to meet you at a specific time and place so that we could disassemble the means of production and effectively delete entire toxic cogs of the economy.

In fact, tell me precisely where and when you plan on meeting so that I can definitely avoid you.

Reduce, reuse, recycle, revolt

i would NEVER suggest burning down factories, as those can be quite easily reconfigured to produce useful things or simply be converted into quite nice neighbourhoods.
