Exactly!  Cripple Creek Barbeque speaks the truth in this blog post below.  I remember working at PACCAR 11 years ago and people would make fun of me because I would rinse out my glass Snapple bottles and take them home to recycle.  I didn’t care if I looked strange - I was raised in a home where we recycled and it’s very important to me.  I have set up recycling programs at every office I have worked in - it’s appalling that so many businesses do not recycle.  C’mon, people.  Be responsible and do your part.  It’s easy!  :)

In a time that your everyday choices makes an impact on your environment and the future every aspect of your day should come under scrutiny. In everything we consume in this country there are wrappers, lables, bottles, plastic, etc.

The increasing high cost of disposing solid waste has forced people to adopt new methods which promote recycling and degradability. People are now developing more environmentally-conscious ways of packaging consumer goods which utilize less complex, more degradable materials.

Look at the packaging your food and non-foods alike and see where you can make changes.

Just about every town has a recycling program, take advantage of it. You would be suprised how much less trash goes to the curb.
