I recyle because I think in the long run its good for the country, good for our household (less to go in the garbage) so there's a savings there...

either the recylers get the cardboard, newspaper, tin cans, glass bottles or the garbage man does...

of course I do keep the aluminum cans to get money for them on my own...

we also save brass,copper if its around. I take apart old computers, etc and bring the circuit boards in.

I'm just doing my little part.

we just throw everything in a nearby fast flowing river- oil, paint, paint thinners, diapers, tin cans, bottles, whatever- the river eats it all because it’s never there the next day-
