Through the combination of the Education II course and my the goals of my family, we have decided to put forth a genuine effort to recycle. Over the last 5 years, my wife and I have had three children and our garbage (both amount and expense) is unbelievable. We started looking at all of the milk jugs, plastic juice cans, and all the tin cans from fruit and veggies and see how much waste we produce. Additionally, we are planning to start composting this spring. The last piece to the recycling equation is that we will be taking all pop cans to cash in on the aluminum. With that money, we will purchase trees to plant on our land as part of our small tree farm business that we have started. All of this seems to fit really well together for us now and for our future goals.
