Recycling Tips

Here's some simple,helpful recycling tips that can save you some $,and help out the enviroment.

1.Recycle plastic bottles (#4,and 6 aren't recycable),glass bottles,newspapers,tin cans,magazines,bottlecaps,plastic/paper bags,aluminum foil,batteries,cardboard boxes,aluminum cans,and old electronics.
  • All of these go into new paper,plastic,and aluminum/steel products,and puts less stress on the earth,plus less materials goes into landfills,and into the soil.
  • Less material is needed to create new paper,and plastic.
  • Plastics use oil as part of the process in making it,so less gas would be used to make new plastics,dropping gas prices.
     
2.Reuse plastic/paper bags,boxes.
  • Plastic,and paper bags can be used as trash bags,amongst other things.
  • Boxes can be used to store things.(duh)
  • Reuse a plastic bottle,and refill it a few times.
3.Instead of throwing out fruit,and veggie cores,and pits or moldy fruits,and veggies,use it as compost for the garden.
  • The parts not eaten can put their nutrients,and water back into the soil,plus it's free.
4.Buy local,and organic.
  • Buying local,and organic also uses less gas since they don't have to travel as far.
  • Organic won't have all the pesticides,and incesticides.
  • Plant plants native to the area.
5.Turn off lights you don't need,reduce vampire power,and unplug things when fully charged.
  • This saves you $.
  • Less coal is used,and puts less co2 in the atmosphere.
  • Things like tvs that are off are still using power even when off because they turn on quicker,and to power the standby light.
6.Instead of walking to the store up the street,walk or ride your bike up to the store.
  • This saves gas,and gives you exercise.
  • You can tie a wagon to you bike or put baskets on it if needed for bags,and such.
  • And instead of using a plastic bag to carry 2 small things,and a receipt,just carry the items.
7.Try getting electronic things with the energy star label on it.
  • These electronics will use less electricity.
  • Saves you $,and saves coal.
  • Replace windows with energy efficent ones.Air can leak out,and the heat/air will keep running,and running,and keep the windows,and doors closed when the air's running.
8.Donate,and buy used/old clothes,and toys.
  • Other people can use them or buy them for less,and saves water,and oil.
  • New clothes uses water,and oil in production.
9.Use CFL bulbs.
  • These use less electricity,but put out the same brightness as regular lightbulbs.
  • Once again,saves $,and coal.
10.Use water conservately.
  • Fix leaks.Leaks waste alot of clean drinking water.
  • Use watersmart seeds.These use less water,and they hold it longer.
  • Don't leave water running longer then needed.
  • Fill the dishwasher,and washer(run cold water) before running it.
  • Airdry washed clothes.This cuts about 6% of your energy bill.
11.Carpool
  • If you live close to somebody you work with,trade off driving however you want to.This saves both of you gas,and puts less co2 in the atmosphere.
12.Adjust the thermostat.
  • By setting the thermostat to 68 in the winter,and 72 in summer,this uses less electricity,and saves $.
13.Try getting solar or wind-generated power.
  • Solar,and wind power make their own electricity,and doesn't give off co2.
  • Yes,solar is expensive to begin with,but it saves alot of $ in the long run,plus you have to clean the panels every once in awhile.
  • Enough sun falls on the earth each day to power every home in the world for a year.

So,Saturday I finally get to graduate from medic school,and it's awesome,and considering all but 2 of us passed our pratical this past weekend in Memphis.All of us went to Beale Street that are over 21 Saturday night,and it was a blast!Now all I need to do is finish my clinicals,and pass my written,and I can get my medics' license,and then finally get into the fire academy eventually.Memphis was my 1st time clubbing,being in a cab,and my 1st jello shot though,even though I barely drank on Beale.
