Happy Earth Day!




Here are a few things you can do to help keep our world clean:

Recycle!!!
I know waaay too many people who don't do this.
Here's a link to find a recycling center near you.


Reuse!
If you don't or can't recycle certain things (for instance, our center won't take yogurt or butter tubs), turn them into something new!
Here are a few Creative Recycling ideas to get you started.


Reduce!
If you refuse to recycle (like my grandparents) and don't want to get creative with your trash, then perhaps you'll consider reducing your output. Opt for reusable things instead of disposables, such as:
  • refillable bottles instead of plastic water bottles
  • cloth napkins instead of paper towels
  • regular plates and cups instead of plastic or syrofoam ones for parties
  • use rechargeable batteries
  • take reusable bags with you to the store
