Waste Not!
Zack Jacobson-Weaver is the Materials Fabrication Studio Coordinator at A&D.
It's not hard to see at the end of the day that our practice is not exactly Al Gore's personal stretch Prius. We generate A LOT of waste. I do a bunch of extra work to salvage usable material and GIVE IT AWAY to starving students. Plus, nothing bothers me more than sweat-shop T-shirts from Target that say " Green is the new..." whatever. It's not a fad....I hope.

Yes. You. Do it.
