Me + Recycling

Hi!

How are you?

I'm doing great today! I decided to try something new. Last year I started this trend of trying something new. I started small though, such as going to hangout when I would originally want to stay indoors (I'm an indoorsy kind of person). I tried tea from Argo today! I didn't know they sold green tea. I've passed this place a few times when leaving the mart/school and yet I never went to take a look despite my curiosity. So I went with two friends and it was pretty fun!

Anyway, on the cup is a recyclable symbol. Recently I search for these of things I use. It's amazing what can be recycled! For instance, McDonald's bags are recyclable! I wouldn't have thought I could recycle that!  *Mind blown...not really*

Well, this cup I have can be recycled. As you can tell from me checking out this kind of stuff, I'm interested in recycling. After looking at the cup it reminded me of my mom. My mom is one of THOSE PEOPLE who tosses tissues or bags out the window. This irritates me so much lol

That kind of action stops me in my track. It seems a bit disrespectful to me. Do you treat your home this way? Do you just throw things on the ground? She says "I'm creating jobs" just to justify that it's okay to toss garbage on the ground. This is ridiculous to me!

So anyway, she got so use to me saying something. So one time we were driving and she used a tissue, she tossed it out the window and instantly said something like "Uh-oh, she's gonna say something. It's just a tissue, I'm creating jobs" and I didn't even look at her lol I chuckled (on the inside I was laughing).

Even my sisters know how I am. I often get on them to. If I can catch them before they do it I'd tell them to just give me their garbage and I'll store it in a bag or my purse or just carry it around until I can throw it away.

I don't recycle because I think it's "right" I recycle because I know it can re-create. This is innovative. When we can take something that was and re-create it into something else, why not take advantage of it? This wasn't invented to be ignored. I don't know much about where the trash goes or recycling for that matter, but I do know that recycling can create new objects, which is enjoy for me to recycle!

I'm not an eco-friendly nut, but I do care for my community enough to not throw trash and garbage on the ground and justify it with some ridiculous reason lol

Well, that was me and recycling lol I just wanted to share this!
