hi guys. I just noticed in our household that we separate our trash by certain categories. We separate the biodegradable from the non-biodegradable and we separate paper trash too. Our family has been practicing this since forever. I believe that it is a great way to help out the environment. Global Warming is hitting the country fast and we need to take certain measures. Are you practicing green too? Do you recycle by separating trash too? Or do you have other methods of recycling. feel free to share below. Happy mylotting.

yeah its cool, can you think that if a box worth 0.5 bucks, how will you get from selling 500 empty boxs, just keep do it, it was positively profitable, not only for you, but the nature got the profit too

Hi friend, good to hear about this, we too have separate trash for biodegradable and non biodegradable things, in fact our corporation provide separate dust bin for both of them and suggest people to collect the garbage in the dust bin. Recycling is important to avoid the global warming and reduce the unwanted garbage. We must use the reusable and recycled things to get benefits as well as to provide our contribution to the go green option

That's the simplest way we can contribute in preventing global warming. In fact it has become a livelihood collecting plastic bottles, metal paper and card boards then selling them to middle men who likewise sell them to the recyclers.

yeah I do practice green and I suggest to everyone. When the governments are taking a step then I think people should be supportive for our future. Good going savagecabbage.

It is the least we can do to save our mother earth, by simply separating our garbage and learn how to recycle. That's one of the biggest problem people has, the simple way of separating their trashes, not realizing that we will be greatly affected by the global warming, many species extinct. We would never want humans too in the near future. :)

We not only do that buy only buy products with no packaging or only recyclable packaging. We also do not waste food. Even scraps too small to use gets put out for the outside animals (I would impost but we won't be here long enough). To give you an idea:our almost bigger than me recycling bin has to go to the curb every week, we might take our trash to the curb once a month. That's for 4 people.

Yes, I do sort out my garbage for recycling. The recycling in my city is promoted. I think it really is a nice way to help the environment. Because the world is getting badder by the day and global warming. Then I can sort out the recyclable stuff and they pick it up with other garbage with recyclable stuff.

We recycle too in my family. There is one recycle can especially for paper and the other one is for boxes, bottles and cans. For the second recycling bin we don't seperate the materials, we just put them all together as long as they are containers, boxes, bottles or cans. I am trying to keep the environment clean and I am doing my best to recycle and use products that are environmental friendly.

Dear yes i totally agree. In my home i re i put it yclce and compost. To compost i took a plastic bottle and put my kitchen scraps in it and when it filled up i put it with my plants. I reduce garbage as much a spossible in my home because i know about global warning and everything. I always ask for pape rbags at gocery stores or use my own rwusable bags.

Yes i second your thought. The amount of trash coming out of everyone's house has been increasing like anything. if we do not come with a unique way of recycling these wastes then they can be very much dangerous for the human kind. The recycling can be done in terms of their use in road construction or in any production activities.

I'm not there yet, because I still do not unite and separate the waste based on its organic samapah or anorgani, both still exist in a container. Actually I wanted to start but here I am not alone there are some people, if only I who do it tough. I want to reduce global warming in order to prevent something bad for the future of the world.

First of all, we bring your own shopping bags, so as to reduce plastic waste. We separate the waste can be recycled and not. This we know from the attendant waste.

Yes. And I am proud that I am the one who started such a campaign in our home! We do separate our waste and trash. But we segregate them specifically for plastics, metals, paper, glass, cartons and others. We sell our recovered scraps to the junk shop. I do get a decent return from recycling packages from what we consume in the household. It really is a great way of helping Mother Nature and earning at the same time.
