    We need to reach more people who are not already committed, the way we all are, to saving and restoring so far as possible, our planet for our grandchildren and theirs and so on. Peace, etc., Bruce

     I am starting a business called Starvin Marvin recycling which will recycle 170 tons of scrap metal a month during its first year and will grow larger from there.  We also recycle everything in garbage here in Oregon.

    In my city-parish (county), we have a recycling program. I asked for my bin in Spetember 2009 and finally got it. Now, more goes into my recycling bin than in my trash bin.

    I have been recycling whatever I can for over a decade now, and I talk to my friends and family about doing so as well.

    I'm starting a nonprofit in my community, that will educate the need for renewable power, such as solar, and wind, as well as the use of items such as the compost toilet that takes away the need to put our toxic waste into the earth, instead putting it back in an earth productive way. I would like to help those in my community receive these life, and money changing assets. Imagine how much money one can save if they produced their own energy, and in-turn used that energy to heat their homes? No more elec. or heating fuel bill, EVER!  GO GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If everyone used reusable bags, reusable aluminum travel cups for hot and cold liquids and recycled everything they could, well then our landfills would hardly grow at all!  And if we compost and plant our own veg and fruits, then we are being really healthy too.  (All those plastic-wrapped foods contain chemicals and preservatives and things no one should want to eat.)

    I already do recycle everything I can find that the Recyclers will take. I even recycle the tubes toilet paper comes on. I hate packaging that cannot be recycled & tell the producers of such products that I will not buy their product if they don't change the packaging to one that CAN be recycled.Happy New Year & Keep up the good work.

    Cara All,

    Hiya, Happy holidays.  Thanx for the additional info., I recycle continually; friends, your work here is impressive too.  The more art is given, the more it is, as is life.  Very cool site, I like it, even though I've only been on it for a couple days, and, unlike many others that are similar, this one's 'buzz' seems to be keeping it growing; which is necessary.  A twig of poetree :)

    Hustled and bustled,
    Still, hands only put to heart,
    Beings, only art.


    I look forward to hearing from you. Goodbye. For those interested :) "of or pertaining to the morning, day: relating to or happening in the morning or in the early part of the day (formal), (Mid-16th century, from late Latin matutinalis, from Matuta, goddess of the dawn.)".  Oyate.

    Matutinally Yours,
