Louanne's actions
Waste
Choose Two-Sided Printing
I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.
Waste
Use a Reusable Water Bottle
I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
Waste
Recycle Everything I Can
Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 5 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
Waste
Compost Food Waste
I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

Louanne Moldovan 10/08/2018 9:25 AMI am a bit of a recycling maven - having been a devotee of the cause for many years. I even wrote a song called "Trash" which the City of Santa Monica uses for their Outreach Recycling Program. I make sure each week to load in at least a layer of yard debris so I have a buffer on which to add my kitchen composting.-
Teri Poppino 10/22/2018 11:24 AMI, too, used to have one of those Metro recycling conical composters. It was a such a dismal failure for my lackadaisical (sp?) on-again/off-again composting efforts that I "recycled" it at curb side with a FREE sign on it. The fellow who stopped and loaded it into his truck was SO happy! (So was I to get rid of it.) I even bought the long handled twister thing to aerate the compost. The whole design was quite unwieldy for me. Is it working for you? -
Dianne Riley 10/12/2018 3:38 PMHey! I gotta hear that song! Will you do a performance? And if it teaches recycling in any way then I need it to present to some folks that don't know how to recycle in my household. They are kinda getting on my nerves a little. -
Louanne Moldovan 10/08/2018 11:59 AMI can't tell if my reply is going to you, Teri - ? Anyway, yes, I have a cute red ceramic container in my kitchen that I empty into the green can. I used to have one of those big black composters in my yard but I no longer use it -
Teri Poppino 10/08/2018 10:40 AMHow FUN! Do you have a container of sorts for your composting? I just have a pile in my raspberry patch. I need something more structured...
