My mind fails me right now.......

Been noticing lately that more and more people have started using less resources, and saving what they can. Makes me feel good about that. I worried for a long time that "we" would refuse to change our ways, and in the process do us all in

I wish I could do more without a car, but living out in the 'burbs makes it impossible. However, I am a maniac about turning off lights in the house and only having on what light I need in the room that I am in.

I am most proud of how much we recycle -- we have two large recycle bins in comparison to one small bag of regular garbage.

Absolutely

One of the things that's killing me about Missoula is just how tricky it is to recycle here! You have to haul it yourself OR pay $10+ a month to have it picked up curb-side though it has to be said, there's nothing like the recycle-bins provided in other towns I've lived in nor is it part of the trash pick-up, it's just a pain in the butt! Still, you have to go out and buy your own bins of sorts and separate everything with paper bags inside and I have to say, that doesn't work for me. As we do recycle and often and with me and the two little ones who try to re-use and recycle everything we can, but where in Vegas we had three each of the little recycle bins provided there, and filled them ALL for the every-two-week pick-up, here it's once a MONTH and they're expecting to only have to pick up a small paper bag of each paper & aluminum and they won't even pick up glass?! Meep! Well, neighbors and I are working on ways to work it out to share the cost and get it all done together as a group, even if we have to have a few of us
