My week long hiatus from our green tasks are over and now it is back to the fun! We now have been at this over four months and am excited at all the changes we have made in this time, but I think it is time to get back to some basics. Ashley wants me to find some of the things that we currently throw away and find ways to recycle these items. This is my challenge for the week.
Since our garbage has gone down quite dramatically, this might be a difficult one to follow through on. We used to send our garbage out on a weekly basis, but now it is about every 3 – 4 weeks that we put garbage on the curb. This makes our selections of items to choose from relatively small in comparison to what we used to throw away.
So, please join me this week in figuring out some new things to recycle and ways to creatively recycle some of the items that currently go into the waste basket. If you have any interesting ways that you recycle, I would love to read about them in the comment area below.
What you talking about is to UPCYCLE! Check http://www.terracycle.net they do a lot of great things and should give you some ideas. Hope this helps. Upcycle is why i say my ECO HERO phrase “ReThink It Green!
