Create A BlogIs There A 12-Step Program For That? |
Posted at Home in St Augustine Beach by Marjorie Taylor
Jul. 20, 2009
I am ashamed to admit, I was a violator. I used to toss my defunct batteries right into the kitchen trash basket. I gave no thought that they would end up in landfills and then enter our environment causing serious health risks.
Fortunately, over the last 10 years I have become more aware of my environment, I have become GREEN. I recycle and reuse, seldom replacing anything. I have special baskets in my garage for bottles, and newspapers and yes, even batteries.
An e-mail from NAR caught my eye this morning. The newsletter featured a site www.Earth 911.com. It is a great place to find out where to deposit everything from batteries, appliances and toxins. Just enter your zip code for local listings.
Check it out and find where to recycle in your neighborhood. Let all help our environment by becoming the green resource in your community.

1. RE: Is There A 12-Step Program For That?
Hi Marjorie,
I'm a violator myself. I liked your blog content. I live in a small rural community with no recycling services so I have to take my recycled items in to town about 15 miles away. That's not so bad except that there are not sites for all materials. It's frustrating. Hopefully, I can find better ways to recycle. I become more committed each day. I will visit Earth911.com and see if I can't do better.
