Seattle Washington in the US recently banned plastic straws. I know that may be a day late, but let’s hope it is not too late. There in our front yard, our recycling bins. We started with one bin, but now we need two or more every week. We are trying to reduce the amount of stuff we send to the landfill every week. Two or three years ago, our trash can was two trashcans and a lot more trash. Now we are trying. It isn’t always easy. I drink a sports drink after walking (Vitamin Water Zero) that doesn’t come in large containers today. I have written the company several times about that, reducing their footprint and I hope they will change to larger containers eventually.
Recycling reduces waste, but the problem is there is so much waste.

Recycling is everything! I cannot tell you how many people in my neighborhood don’t recycle. The number is up, but not enough.
I agree! Seattle Washington actually banned plastic straws. Hopefully things like that catch on!
Glad to hear about the plastic straws, I saw the story on the news. Maybe it will help the sea life.
I keep asking for no straw at restaurants, servers look at me like I am nuts.
Not only on Earth but in the universe we have waste. It is difficult to solve it.
It is a sad state of affairs we find ourselves in.
Great idea, nature should be kept.
We are stewards of this earth, and need to return it to where we started!
Plastic straws huh. I made hundreds of crafts from used plastic straws. All my neighbors save them for me.
That is awesome a reuse of something that has to be kept out of landfills!
That’s a great start. Save our nature and the world. Two thumbs- up!!
Thanks! It is important to remember it is our earth!
Yes Doc we need better ways of recycling. Great point to bring to our minds today.
I am glad you agree! The future is not one that should be covered by trash!
