I really like the illustration style you use in this project, it delivers the concept clearly, and the colors are playful. I love the sarcasm (e.g. will for your children) and the whole “Steve the neighbor” scenario, looking forward to more. During the discussion, a classmate also asked about the potential solutions to landfills, and how there’s really no one. I happened to grow up next to a landfill, and am familiar with the seriousness of the issue. Luckily in my home’s case, the landfill was shut down in 1998 and turned into an “environmental practice park” in 2002, which is now a popular tourist spot in the city. (information: https://travel.tycg.gov.tw/en/travel/Attraction/696?print=1 ). However, of course, not every landfill can be easily turned into a park, and even if turned into a park, the issues underground remain. Overall, I really enjoyed reading your guide.
