Reducing my trash footprint....
Apr. 15th, 2018 05:11 pmI'm always looking for ways to reduce my trash footprint. I've seen how our landfills have become man-made mountains. And I've been hearing stories about trash "islands" in the ocean causing problems for aquatic life that mistakes the trash (usually plastic) for food.
While I won't be able to stop the flow of trash into the landfill -- I know they'll fill up with our without my help -- I can take steps to minimize that flow. I'm already recycling as much as I can -- paper, paperboard, #1 & #2 plastics, aluminum, steel, glass. But there are still other things I can recycle.
( So, what does my trash look like? What is in my trash profile? )
