Our society thrives on consumerism, but our environment suffers because of it; the by-products of our über consumerist ways are ultimately transformed into über waste. Take a look at your trash, and ask yourself these questions:
Is there anything in here I can recycle?
Is there anything in here that can be repurposed?
Is there any other way I can reduce my waste?
If someone was to randomly sift through your garbage on trash day, would you be embarrassed?

1. We recycle everything. The recycling bin overflows and we have to add more stuff to the old blue bins!
ReplyDelete2. I would love to re purpose leftovers and make it into compost, but my husband refuses to allow that, because he knows that i will make him take all the smelly food outside and make him mix the compost.
3. I think we've done pretty good with reducing our waste. we have it down to one quarter of a black garbage bag!
4. nope!...

That's fantastic, such a great effort already, especially with the trash. I hear you about the food, though. We compost most of the organic waste but it is always a dreaded task to take care of bringing the food to the compost, and then mixing it; but somebody has to do it!
