Haha. That would have never occurred to me.

I think I need to find a bin that won't be stolen or set on fire.

I think what we should be concentrating on more, is helping people to care. Damn the easiness. Some people don't even realize it's an option.

Yep, I recycle almost everything. I think a lot of people don't because they think it's too difficult. Does anyone have any ideas on how to raise awareness about the ease of recycling and/or help people in their community recycle more easily? I'd be interested to hear ideas. www.youthventure.org is a great website to help you turn your ideas into action. I'm excited to see who replies with great ideas about recycling.

We recycle. We recycle everything. We overflow our orange bin every week, but we're too cheap to buy a second one.

People who do not recycle are lazy, ignorant or both; it's SO easy to do in our society today and it really does make a difference.

If I know something is made from recycled materials, I'll rejoice in that fact...but I don't go out of my way to find them.

I would, but the municipal recycling bin in my apartment complex was set on fire and semi-blown up by drunken tenants. I attempted to use a conventional blue bin, but it was stolen.

Gah! I didn't think of that. That is a good idea. Darn. Frown

I recycle as much as I can remember to, but not all that I can.

Well of course! Everything. It's hard when my brother hates recycling. *frowns* But I try.
