A few years ago when I first opted out of the Direct Mailing Association, it seemed like a cumbersome task. NOW you can actually do it online, though I think it costs $5. But thats ok with me. I can spare $5 instead of using new paper and envelopes and stamps.
So, I have now opted out of bulk mailings. I have opted out of bulk email spam. And I called the jasco catalog and asked them to stop sending me their catalog. These things should hopefully reduce the amount of paper coming into my house, and at least my home won't be responsible for wasting trees!!
Now I'm trying to find a way to recycle prescription bottles. I haven't been able to find any pharmacies or vets that are willing to take them. But one woman at a local pharmacy said she'd take them and put them in her curbside recycling, since they now take all plastics, not just #'s 1 and 2. Course, if the Lancaster County Waste people are taking ALL plastics, then I should also be able to put my prescription bottles in the incinerators plastic recycling bin!
