Reduce, Reuse, Recycle...

Many of you may or may not know that I have been on a small mission (emphasis on small) to do my bit for the environment. So far the "mission" has mostly been a gathering of information, less of actual DOING. We do however go drop off all our glass behind the Friendly Grocer Seven Eleven Whatever Its Called Now place, I guess that's something at least.

The Worm farm will be on it's way soon...

And Clem sent me this link today about recycling. It was interesting, but I found what I think might be a little gold nugget to my recycling future. A little website called Clearer Conscience.

Awesome little site, explains everything so simply. I tried to phone them, but no answer, so I sent an email, and I'm eagerly awaiting response. You see, doing some research, there are quite a few companies that come and pick up your recyclables, BUT, not this side of the Boerewors Curtain. Is it because we're not as concerned about the environment? I'm trying to find out why. There are some drop off depots in the area... Maybe we're just good at sorting out our trash and then be on our merry way to drop off our trash. Somehow I very much doubt that.

Most people, when one starts this "green living" and recycling topic, 1. know very little about it, other than the earth worm farms they saw on "that Carte Blanche" episode, and 2. say they "would do it, but it just seems like such a schlep, if only someone would come pick it up".

Well there are people,

and I will get them to the Northern Suburbs,

and we will recycle...
