Here is a log of all my waste for the past week. I wanted to keep it manageable, so I focused on physical things I actually throw out in the garbage (or recycling). I realize electricity is a big part of my consumables, but I left it aside as I had no way of quantifying it.
The list is a lot shorter than I had anticipated and it is mostly related to food.
