Recycling and upcycling is something we all can do. With us having little control over what goes on in this world why not do what you can to help save this planet?
You must have breathed a sigh of relief as the idea of putting a dump site near your home was squashed.
Like yourself, all it takes is some imagination and so much of what we throw away can have an alternative use.
I don't even want to get started with packaging. Just yesterday we bought a new crock pot and the packaging had my head spinning. By the time we unraveled all of the packaging, we had three boxes and a shit load of styrofoam. That stuff should be outlawed.
Great post!
That's true, there is still something we can do, even in our own little ways. The dump site had us worried to be honest and thankful that it was opposed by the community.
I hear you about packaging with styrofoam. I agree that those stuff should be banned. There must be other alternatives to securely package the products/items. It makes me wonder why government agencies for the environment aren't taking steps to regulate those things.
You would think an issue like packaging in a more environmentally friendly way would be a cinch, but when it comes to commonsense, government agencies lack even a smidgen of it.
