Recycle, Birmingham!

Ok, I have to (and hate to) admit this was my first year to take in the Moss Rock Festival. Mostly because the main draw for me was the environmental focus, rather than the art stuff. I really made up my mind to go when I read the website info about being able to bring your e-cycling and drop it off there. My garage had been piling up that kind of stuff for years (an overload of computer stuff has always been part of the family business) and somehow I never found out about all the local e-cycling events until a day or two after they happened.

So, I loaded up the SUV and made the trek to Hoover. Wonderful. Pix and more to come…stay tuned

Eureka! A place to recycle those pesky odd-numbered plastics that nobody in the local recycling area wants: Whole Foods now has a bin for #5 plastics. You know, those yogurt, cottage cheese, margarine etc. tubs and their matching lids, as well as anything else that has a #5 in the recycle symbol triangle on the bottom. It’s a start, anyway…now, anybody know of places that take the other numbers??? Post it here!
