Ok, so our subdivison just got containers to start recycling. I’m really happy about that. It’s a simple concept folks. We can recycle paper, plastic products, and aluminum. The recycle truck comes on Thursday mornings…only. I don’t have a problem with that at all.
We’ve been teaching Chloe how to use the big yellow bin. She knows that we put the plastic green Diet Mt Dew bottles (of which there are FAAaaaarrrrr to many) in it, and her empty milk cartons. I taught her to say ‘I’m saving the planet’ each time we take something out to the bin.
So as I’m walking around the neighborhood (in my effort to excersise more) all through the neighborhood so many people just leave their bins out on the street with just regular gargage in it. Nothing even remotely recycleable. Grrrrr.
Then I got to noticing what else was in the bins. Our neighborhood– trash, nasty gargage and cheap beer. Then I noticed when I walk around in the rich neighborhood to the left of ours–they do it right, and also don’t leave these ugly ol’ bins out everyday. I know there’s a lot of Brits overthere and all I can say is damn, they drink alot! Huge multiple wine bottles and TONS of beer bottles. The Brits may drink themselves silly, but at least they recyle.
