Sunday, November 07, 2010 ( 1:25 PM ) shut up christine superhero accessories these are things i have, that i like ....for the benefit of all humanity even superheroes (like myself) wake up some mornings, take a long hard look in the mirror and ask, does it matter yo? in the grand scheme of things, will it really make a difference if i recycle this scrap of cardboard? yup. Between Thanksgiving and the New Year, Americans throw up to 25% more trash, amounting to a massive five million tons extra. Of this, about four millions tons is believed to be made up of wrapping paper and shopping bags. www.hotfact.com/facts-about-trash-and-garbage.htmlthe cashier laughs and tells me that my groceries won't fit in my bag. ignorant fool, watch me! i proceed to fill one bag with 43 cans of lentil soup and a tofurkey hahaha i win!! then i try to walk to my car as fast as i can so the cashier can't see that my arms are shaking uncontrollably under the weight heee. these small stretchy bags carry a crapload. strangers always ask where i got mine. @ Whole Foods but you can get them online here Americans buy an estimated 29.8 billion plastic water bottles every year. Nearly eight out of every 10 bottles will end up in a landfill earth911.com these were on sale and i got two black ones (buy one get one free - $7.99) at cost plus world market www.dumpandrun.org/garbage.htm We could reduce our impact so much simply by packing our lunches in reusable containers, vs styrofoam or paper bags. I like using my metal tiffin lunchbox (also from cost plus world market) or this sistema lunch cube my friend supun gifted me a to-go ware utensil set - comes with bamboo knife, fork, spoon and chopsticks, wrapped in a case made from recyled plastic bottles #
