American Consumption: In Visuals

Running the Numbers An American Self-Portrait "This new series looks at contemporary American culture through the austere lens of statistics. Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on."

So looking through my feed reader I stumbled across this post from Kevin Burton's Feed Blog on March 13. Since I have been studying and researching the role of Germany on the environment, this is an interesting visual way to see just how much we consume in America.
