Saturday night I had 10 midgets over for a little get together.
Yeah and Snow White had seven up every night.
Mind my own business

I recycle what my city wants to make easy to recycle. I hugged a tree yesterday does that count? Oh I don't own a car so that's a bit less air pollution and gas consumption.
I recycle, give money to my church and support the Smile Train charity that fixes cleft pallets. They seem trustworthy and they transform kids' lives in a very simple and easy way.
I sense a Snow White blind in the near future.
I'm an avid recycler, rain water gatherer, energy-efficient appliance buyer, etc. It just makes sense.
Learned to take tree cuttings
Haven't owned a car since 1999
I bought the Candle In The Wind CD in like 1997.
@DDonna Smile Train is legit. I know docs who donated their time.
Yes, although I doubt we're saving the planet one can at a time.
Recycle of course, I'm not a monster. ☺ At least we have curbside pickup. Not every city/ state provides that service, which is a shame. Even so, only about a third of the houses in my neighborhood participate.
I used to do upcycle/crafty shit (my Blogger ID comes from a former blog I had with that theme).
I drink filtered tap water, not bottled. Reusable straws & straw cleaner (so inexpensive and it makes a big difference), reusable mesh coffee filter.
Now if only I could remember to bring my own grocery bags to the store.
In think all states should adopt the bottle deposit system, like in Michigan. Several states do it, but they are the only ones who do 10 cents per bottle/can. Expand it to include water (Not just soda & beer) and that would make a HUGE difference.
Nah, but it adds up. Every little bit helps.
Of course I recycle.
In Las Vegas it's easy.
Trash is picked up twice a week; and recyclables bi-weekly.
Simple, no mess, no returning bottles for a nickle!
Recycling is mandatory in California and yes I do. I Used to cash in cans but I give them to the homeless at the beach.
I fertilize.
+🤣🤣🤣
I hate when people throw their cigarette buts on the ground, they need a good slap.
I recycle every scrap I can! city makes it easy too with complimentary 30gallon cans with wheels they pick up on garbage day. I rarely have a full bag of trash these days but I also drive absolutely everywhere so I kinda suck
At my house we reduce, reuse and recycle. We always have since the early 80's, because it cuts down on waste and money.
In the summer clothing is dried on the clothesline, and we compost kitchen waste for the garden and yard. I make home brewed ice tea in the fridge and make coffee with a french press as it uses less energy. All the light bulbs in the house are compact florescent or LED.
I haven't used a store's bag in over a decade. My kids were always embarrassed because I used two gym bags for our groceries before they became the thing to do.
So yes, we recycle, and don't think twice about it.
Annnd I remove jar labels, wash them out and use them for my lunches.
No recycling in my town.
I recycle and also sharpen the wiper blades on my car, so I don't have to buy new ones nearly as often.
Candle in the Wind guy, supra, is my hero du jour.
Recycle: yes. We also support animal rescue and feral cat fixing organizations to improve the lot of wildlife. (And abandoned domestic animals).
I also save dog-safe food scraps when I’m cooking to make our dogs’ food in the slow cooker instead of throwing them out. Bonus: We have very healthy dogs and don’t have to worry about deadly pet food recalls.
Oh, and we plant and maintain trees and other green growing things.
It’s not a huge contribution to the world or anything, but it’s what we do.
I voted for a government that makes climate change a priority (hint, I don't live in the USA. Obvs)
I just burn it all
I make little six-inch books from of discarded paper and cardboard around the house (junk mail; cereal boxes; old bills). Then I take the books to the local elementary school. The first graders create little stories with them.
(I also bring them crayons, markers, and children's scissors, any time I see those items on sale. These are things that the teacher would have to buy herself.)
Yup. Recycle all paper, corrugate, glass, aluminum, tin cans, all plastic. If I composted I'd have almost zero trash. But, yes to recycling.
Sometimes I worry I'm not smug enough to try to save the planet, like creatively solving my first world problems isn't enough. I mean deep down, I know deciding what to do with my leftover food or the refuse left over from the things I buy should be enough to justify that self-righteous smirk, but still. Maybe I'll buy some carbon offsets.
Always cut up the rings that hold six pack drinks. And, most of the time, when I'm walking the trails behind my house, I'll pick up the trash, plastic bags. Etc.
Oh, gosh. We recycle, compost, garden, conserve energy as much as possible, contribute to charity and are raising our kids not to be assholes. I think we're doing our share.
I recycle everything I can. Plus, I keep a brown paper bag in the car trunk for the random plastic that is everywhere. I pick that up, and recycle it. Every little bit helps.
Don't recycle in winter, trust me on this
I recycle so much I need a bigger recycle bin and smaller trash can. Also take electronics once a year to an event that recycles those. Most of the furniture is used because I like mid century so that is sort of recycling.
What I don't understand is this Keurig business. Those coffee makers generate way more trash than a conventional coffee maker. Why are they so popular if everyone is concerned about sustainability?
Also moved less than 3 miles from work so that cut down a lot on driving.
I recycle everything: paper, plastic, garden waste, clothes. I think it is a shame no to.
If you have ever toss a plastic bottle cap out just anywhere or threw garbage out your car window or have ever watched, in amazement as a bird soars through the blue sky, then you MUST WATCH THIS.
Only a few min, not long at all and it's life changing. You will think twice about the your use and disposals of plastic.
If you think that throwing away that plastic bottle or small piece of plastic, can't possibly be doing any harm, then watch this clip and think again.
Yes, recycle, reuse and refuse!
I REFUSE any plastic straws! If you are at a restaurant and they give you a plastic straw, please refuse it and ask them to please start using paper straws.
NOTE: paper straws are MUCH better nowadays than they were back in the day. They are biodegradable and recycleable paper straws that are very sturdy!
After the hurricanes last year, I cleaned our local beach almost every day. You would be heartbroken over the amount of plastic on the beach. Top items: plastic straws, plastic bottle caps, toothbrushes and plastic combs.
I happily still drive a 12-year-old Prius...I know that's lame, but it still gets the best mileage available and has never given me a problem. Also it works as a silent and energy-efficient generator during power outages. And my water is from an artesian well...flows perfectly clean year-round and is unlimited and free.
Seth: why no recycling in winter?
I make love not war...
Only cars and aluminum, for cash. Newspaper, cardboard, plastic, I burn. Tin cans go straight in the trash.
