We Recycle


The school where I work has a very effective recycling program for both paper and plastics. The kids have fun donning rubber gloves and fishing through the bin for those with a 5 cent redemption value.
My son's university is the first in the U.S. to ban the sale of water in plastic bottles on campus, thereby reducing the amount of recycling necessary. When he moved on campus, he was given small bins for his room to recycle paper and plastic. Recycling seems to be second nature for the younger generation.
How about your school, your business or even you? Do you recycle? Do you have a compost pile?

How in the world did you live through licking a cactus. How did you get them out? wow, that is one of the worst stories I have ever heard. You get a medal for bravery.

Recycling is so important. Kudos to your school and community. When a community makes it easy for people to recycle, they will do it.

The closed several collection centers in Ocala recently because of budget concerns.

Unfortunately.
