How can i help out the environment in my own home?

Posted in Green Q&A | 6 comments

The environment is very important to me. I make sure to shut off all of the lights when I’m not in the room and I’m persuading my Mom to buy the better light bulbs for the environment. I also recycle everything (bottles, cans, cardboard, paper, etc) What else can i do?

Who can you contact about disgusting garbage littered all over the beach and coastline?

Posted in Green Q&A | 11 comments

I recently moved to Texas from Oregon, and although I like Texas a lot i am completely appalled and disgusted by the amount of garbage that is spread all over ( and I mean everywhere!) the beach. Everybody here just seems to throw their garbage all over the beach. There isnt a clean area of beach to stretch out and relax on. I have seen dirty diapers, styrafoam cups, milkjugs, tall white buckets, wrappers, alcohol containers, fishing lures, plastic wrap from cigarette packs and things like that. It’s disgusting and everywhere. I am used to going to the beach and seeing very little garbage. It looks clean and it’s beautiful when you visit. Oregons beaches were very well taken care of and rarely did I see garbage. How can I bring this to attention and who do I need to start with at trying to make people realize what they are doing by littering. I’d like to really get some support and hopefully someone in charge of changing things like this in the State to start making changes!
I live by surfside beach and it’s about 4 miles of beach. I just want people to be aware of the garbage problem. There are gabage cans all along the grass before you actually get to the sand close enough for ppl to use but they don’t. they just throw the garbage whereever they are. I want to clean it up and make it beautiful and peaceful. I would like to know information on who to cantact, webite links maybe to the effects of garbage and beach wildlife and just the negative effects for the environment and wildlife, and anything to help make my case stronger and more effective in getting the desired results. Please help and the more info you can give me the better. I am not an environmentalist but I do think we need to take care of what God has given us. Any help is appriciated. Thank You!

You know on the cans they say you can recycle them for 10 cents at SA.
What does SA mean ? And where can i give them.
That is if Australia has a recycling firm for pepsi.

I live in a rural region where there is absolutely no recycling resources, unless I drive over 300 miles! Are there any websites or organizations that I can contact to recycle plastics, metals, cans etc?

What can you recycle and get refunded for in Michigan?

I know you may recycle pop bottles, cans…but I wanted to know if you can recycle things like a shampoo bottle or something. As for glass, can you recycle things like wine bottles, pickle jars, etc? Remember, I am asking about the recycling where you get 10 cents per bottle or can. THANK YOU!
