No, I haven't made the term up, its a composite of Free and Vegan. This from CBS News explains how 'Freegans' forage through dumpsters at night looking for food and clothing.
They "oppose over-consumption and capitalism. They live their lives using what others throw away."
"This is like living in the woods: You have to know where the mushrooms grow. You have to know where the stores are that throw out the things you want."
And what scares them the most? The garbage truck!
Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.
