be greener

I wish everyone wanted to help by being greener. I mean, I’m not necessarily gung ho on this, but really protecting the environment should be a big deal to everyone. I try to do my part, but sometimes if there is no recycling bin, I’ll throw away paper or a plastic bottle or a soda can. I know that I shouldn’t, so I’m working on it. I mean, if I truly mean to be green, I can’t just only recycle when it’s convenient. Also, I sometimes leave my lights all day because I forget. Or I turn the heat up in my house when I could easily put on warmer clothes. (Note: I have a tendancy of wearing shorts while inside during the winter.) I drive when I could easily bike or walk instead. So my aim is to change all this. I want to bike and walk more, use less heat, turn off my lights, and recycle whenever possible.

I found my local recycling center and am planning on picking up these recycling bins on my next Taco Mac Tuesday. Then on Sundays after Apple, I’ll drive my stuff down to the recycling center.
