First Step to Legally Protecting Environment?
According to WRAL, effective October 2009, it will be illegal to through plastic bottles in the trash. The details and the questions are all in this article here: http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/5265295/
I am a healthy and productive person who balances being a Mommy, writer, runner, and wife - not to mention myself - each and every day. I love every minute of it!
To the best of my recollection, here's what I've spent thusfar . . .
Grey water storage container (1 container x3) - $6.88 Dryer balls (2 balls x4) - $9.44 Compost pail - $34.95 (could have been $20) Bio bags for compost pail (100) - $20 Compost barrel - $190 Reusable grocery bags (5 bags) - $1 Shredder - $20 Sandwich containers (5) - $1.24 Britta water filter - Filters for Britta - Family water bottles - $14 Tall Kitchen Bio Bags (25 bags) - $5 + shipping ($5.50) Puppy Poop Bio Bags (35 bags) - $5 + shipping ($5.50) Rain barrel - $85
Of course, now I have to go back and measure what I've done away with to make any comparison, but here is a start and a way for me to keep track of costs until I put together something more accurate and easy to follow.
