We can help educate our families and communities about the importance of recycling for our environment, and how each of us can make a difference for a better world by recycling.
-- Robert Alan


But our waste problem is not the fault only of producers. It is the fault of an economy that is wasteful from top to bottom—a symbiosis of an unlimited greed at the top and a lazy, passive, and self-indulgent consumptiveness at the bottom—and all of us are involved in it.
-- Wendell Berry


Every moment has led to this moment. Now is the time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. Together we can create a better world. -- Robert Alan


Life is too short to waste stop and do something about it Anita Riddell

Quotes on life

Here are some quotes that will make think about life and how privilege we are to have it.

My Inspirations

In my life and have been so inspired by the things I see and do. For example a few months back my hubby and I were at the local dump. Dropping off gravel and dirt we did not need. I was in shock by what I seen, useful items  that could have been reused by someone in need. There was also items that could have been fixed. Like a dresser with a missing leg. And a chair that could have been recovered. What is this world becoming.

It is sad to see so many struggle when in reality they don't have too. What happen to neighbors helping neighbors. Have we forgotten what matters the most.. Think about it if you were sick and had no one, wouldn't you want your neighbor to care. Wouldn't you welcome that hot chicken soup or that welcome companion ship. We need to reality need to start putting the shoe on the other foot and think about our actions before it is to late.

It is the same thing when it comes to recycling. Do we really need a new couch and chair? Can't we just reupholster it. Think about it would save you over $1000. What would you do with that extra $1000 that you didn't have to throw away. What about those old clothes ok so we lost 15 lbs. Well we could pass them on to someone else in need. Make some useful bags. Create some great dust rags etc. There is so many ideas it is priceless.

Think before you throw something away. can it be fixed, painted, or donated to help someone in need. By doing this you are doing your part in saving our earth. help a neighbor, help a friend so you care to make a better place for all us to live in.
