I have a friend who is very serious about recycling and she wraps her kids presents in newspaper.
Really can't see the point of it, as tearing newsprint is not the same as bright paper that promises something exciting inside. I would prefer the Wal-Mart bag option. Why waste the time and sellotape?
At the weekend an acquaintance scolded me for running water into her sink (the water was hot and I was getting cold water to drink and she had turned off the cold water/ice dispenser on her fridge). She "asked" me to run the tap into the bucket in the second sink so as to not waste water. I looked in the bucket and OMG - it had dirty plates in it and the water was an opaque greasy grey color. Note to self- don't eat anything made in that house.
I realize that she was trying to conserve water. I felt very guilty after that flushing her toilet as I suspect she uses the "grey" water for that.
Recycling is FABULOUS until it becomes an extreme obsession.
eeeewwwwwww
