Most of the stuff lying around can be recycled if we just do our share.<br />
<br />
<b> Bras </b><br />
<br />
You might find it funny but there is a recycling company called<b> Bra Recyclers</b> that buy and sell bras for a business. They have exporters and organization worldwide to help qualified women with used or unused bra as they stand up to self reliance.<br />
<br />
Make sure the bras are in good condition, especially the clasp and straps are working. They also accept new bras and keep the tags on to indicate that they are new.<br />
<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>Shoes</b><br />
<br />
Most shoes worn out after 500 miles but many are still usable There are many companies that recycle shoes such as <b>NIKE</b> that will make your old shoe new again or <a href="http://www.nikereuseashoe.com/"><b>reUSE</b></a> it. Sometimes we outgrow our shoes but not totally worn out, you can pass them down to a kid in a neighborhood or just send it to <a href="http://solesforsouls.org/">solesforsouls.org</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Hair</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Hair can be recycled too.<a href="http://www.locksoflove.org/"> <b>Locks of Love</b></a> is a non profit organization that gives hairpieces to children suffering related to hair growth. Their goal is to provide self confidence for disadvantage children.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Cd's</b><br />
<br />
Most of us have Cd's lying around. Re purpose them to create shinny decorations in the living room and garden. You can create dumbbells, lampshades,blinds and even a chair.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Just bring any of your old clothes even if its not a H & M to avail of the voucher worth $5 dollars off to your next purchase of $30 dollars or more. I would say its a win-win situation for us because I'm sure we need space and some clutter free environment especially at home. H & M will have more visitors on their store and get ECO - points for their good deeds. Not bad for helping out.<br /><br /><br />After H & M has collected the clothes, it will be transferred to the I: Collect to determine the condition of the clothes. <br /><br /><br />I:Collect the partner of H & M for the <b><a href="https://plus.google.com/116620128985206450588">recycling program</a></b> will check it if its still usable. Clothes that are not wearable will be converted to new products or recycled fibers.<br /><br />According to the fast-fashion retailer's press release, “Any pieces of clothing, from any brand and in any condition are accepted. In return, the customer will receive a voucher for each bag brought. The collected clothes are then handled by H&M’s partner, <a href="http://www.ico-spirit.com/us/Home-1.html"><b>I:Collect</b></a>, which provides the infrastructure in which consumer goods are repeatedly reprocessed and made available for new use."</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Our sustainability efforts are rooted in a dedication to social and environmental responsibility. We want to do good for the environment, which is why we are now offering our customers a convenient solution: to be able to leave their worn out or defective garments with H&M,” stated H&M CEO Karl-Johan Persson.</span></div>

Almost 85 per cent of machine wash clothes energy is used to heat the water. <br /><br />A clothes line consumes no energy compared to machine drying. If you can't avoid using them then use dryer balls to speed up the drying process. <br /><br />Replace your shower head with a low flow and it will lower your water bill that can repay for the efficient shower head you use.</span><span style="font-size: large;">Attach a faucet aerator on your faucet. This will help maintain heat and save water while keeping the water pressure constant. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Try to walk or bike going to work. Alternate commuting and walk/bike to save on gas. It will save you lots of money on gas and gym membership that provides a way for you to exercise. <br /><br />Install a simple water filter to save from buying bottled water. Try to bring your bottled container to school and work to avoid buying water bottles. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">In an ambitious move to boost the city's dismal recycling rate, the Bloomberg administration intends for the first time to collect and compost food waste, starting with a program on Staten Island.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Officials said Mayor Bloomberg will announce the initiative today in his 12th and final State of the City address at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If the program for single-family homes in the smallest borough works, it will be expanded citywide, diverting about 20 percent of the garbage from the waste stream of the nation's largest metropolis.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Other cities, such as San Francisco and Seattle, already turn leftovers into fertilizer.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"The administration seems to recognize it needs to polish up its record on recycling to keep up an overall impressive record on environmental and sustainable issues," said Eric Goldstein, senior attorney of the National Resources Defense Council.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"Recycling has been the soft spot . . . This can mark a real turning point in returning New York to a leadership role."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The city's recycling rate hovers at around 15 percent, less than half the national average. When Bloomberg took office in 2002, it was 19 percent. The mayor has pledged to double the recycling rate by 2017.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The city spends more than $300 million to ship 10,800 tons of trash each day to landfills. The cost goes up almost every year.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Officials on Staten Island - many of whom took part in the fight to shut the enormous Fresh Kills landfill during the Giuliani administration - reacted warily.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"I think most people are not going to like it," predicted Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro. "I doubt if it's going to be successful."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">To round out his recycling package, Bloomberg, who turns 71 today, confirmed the worst fear of take-out joints. He's going to ask the City Council to make New York the first major East Coast city to ban Styrofoam.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">An estimated 20,000 tons of the nearly indestructible stuff enters the waste stream each year.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Finally, the mayor wants to amend the Building Code so that 20 percent of the spaces in all new parking garages are wired for electric vehicles, creating an estimated 10,000 such spots in seven years.</span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The city also plans to set up two sites for 30-minute electric car charge-ups, one in Seward Park for the public and another at Con Ed headquarters on Irving Place for taxi fleets.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://clearitwaste.co.uk/"><b>Rubbish Clearance London</b></a>-The ECHO Farm in Southwest Florida serves a special purpose. The non-profit helps aid workers in developing countries use the best <a href="http://clearitwaste.co.uk/ourwork">sustainable</a> farming tools and techniques in ways that would make MacGyver proud. <br /><br />ECHO chases that goal in a few different ways. At the farm, ECHO workers operate in a tropical Floridian environment that is remarkably similar to the climate of many developing countries. Here, they can work out what crops are best for places as disparate as Costa Rica and Tanzania. After they've discovered the best plants, and worked out how to maximize yield, ECHO invites aid workers to come and learn. Once the aid workers have been trained, they scatter like (and with) seeds across the developing world. </span><div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The IdleAir project is one of many innovative carbon-reduction projects across America where Chevrolet is making an impact on local communities, jobs and the environment. The brand is supporting various energy efficiency, renewable energy and conservation initiatives in its goal to prevent up to 8 million metric tons of carbon dioxide from entering the earth's atmosphere. To date, it has secured commitments for nearly 7 million metric tons. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />With Chevrolet's help, IdleAir can further expand availability of its engine-idling alternative. With the service, a driver pulls into an IdleAir space and installs a reusable plastic window adapter that accepts a unit connecting his or her cab to a heating and cooling air vent, TV, power outlets, internet and other conveniences. The truck engine can then be turned off, saving fuel, reducing emissions and keeping power on to the big rig's amenities. <br /><br />"IdleAir enables drivers to enjoy a better environment inside and outside of the cabin, without the noise, vibration, and exhaust fumes from idling," said IdleAir CEO Ethan Garber. "By expanding access to this option throughout America, communities experience cleaner air, reduced noise pollution, local job creation, and an increased tax base for the local economy." <br /><br />IdleAir users save a gallon of diesel fuel per truck per hour. Drivers typically rest at night, so IdleAir uses off-peak power and has begun installing solar panels on some of its overhead trusses to provide solar-powered electricity. <br /><br />"Chevrolet's significant investment is driving innovation and encouraging unique ways for the country to sustain cleaner energy and, ultimately, reduce the effects of climate change," said Mark Kenber, CEO of The Climate Group. <br /><br />Chevrolet was the largest corporate buyer of voluntary carbon reduction credits in the United States by volume for 2011 as tracked by Forest Trends' Ecosystem Marketplace, a nonprofit source of environmental news and data. <br /><br />"If we want to leave the world a better place, we need to change the way we do things," said David Tulauskas, GM sustainability director and manager of the Chevrolet carbon-reduction initiative. "Climate change, population growth, urbanization and other issues require our industry to transform itself. We are going beyond our traditional scope of responsibility - building efficient vehicles - into these community-based carbon-reduction projects to help demonstrate our commitment." </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Altering our perception to reduce food waste seems like a simple task but it is not. We definitely know that wasting food is a crime to humanity, but majority of us admit that we do it to a certain extent.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The reports are alarming because one third of worlds food generated is wasted. This waste can feed 900 million human beings. What a waste of food! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">In order to tackle this surmountable task we must first learn our subject and its traits. According to Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW) campaign that their are 60 linked causes of Food waste such as lifestyle change, Environment and food knowledge.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We don't have a instant solution for this. Some have different situations and unique solutions to their food waste. Sometimes parents tempt kids by overcooking and workers waste food because of a busy schedule at work. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are some important strategies to reduce waste. We must determine the food waste causes and hoe people reacts to it individually. Slogans with global tone such as food security, energy and water are too far fetch that it will take a long time to see the improvement for food waste. As the prices of food increase the THINK EAT SAVE campaign can spark instant </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Make sure we know want we want and make it simple. “buy what you need; eat what you buy”., by targeting easy goals we can make a viral change.the LFHW program has prevented an estimated 1.1 million tonnes of food, worth over £2.5bn, from being wasted by UK households.</span><br />

Thousands of individual items have been recycled so far, and one school – Hope Primary School – recycled more than two tonnes of electrical items in just one week. I hope that more schools will volunteer to take part, and that all the children will be inspired to recycle more.”<br /><br />Alistair Brown, Arbitel Recycling’s Business Development Manager, said: “We have been delighted with the response we have received so far, but we want to remind other schools in Shropshire that it’s not too late to participate, so call us on 01743 295010 if you want the chance to win £500 for your school by recycling electrical items.”<div>

<a href="http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/uploadedImages/Press/12-28-12%20Bunnell.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/uploadedImages/Press/12-28-12%20Bunnell.jpg" width="282" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://clearitwaste.co.uk/">Waste Clearance London</a>-The proprietor of a local waste clearance company has been apprehended and arraigned for diverse offenses involving illegal burning and burying of waste in Wayne County.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Joseph Bunell, 50 was arrested last Friday by authorities from the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office.
Bunnel owns the Bunnell Waste Removal at 257 Tryon Street in Honesdale.
Based on the complaint, Bunnel was charged with obtaining money from clients while not properly dumping their garbage. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Attorney General Linda Kelly said Bunnell allegedly provided customers with bogus landfill weigh tickets which falsely indicated their buried and burned waste had been disposed of at a landfill. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> The documents was gathered by Donald A. Hentz Jr., a special agent with the Office of Attorney General, Bureau of Criminal Investigations, Environmental Crimes Section.
Hentz said in October 2011, he interviewed someone who had worked at Bunnell for about six years.
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The employee said that he was directed by Bunnell or BWR supervisory employee Jody Rickert to transport waste to one of the two sites in Wayne County.
He said waste was transported to the Tryon Street site in Honesdale where it was sorted by Bunnell employees and then burned or taken to the Keystone landfill in Dunmore. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> The complaint says that waste was "driven up the hill at Tryon Street" by employees "early in the morning and burned primarily on foggy/rainy days." </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> The agent also interviewed a 20-year employee of Bunnell who said that approximately four to six loads of trash at a time were dumped at Tryon Street and sorted by laborers.
He said all wood, cardboard and tires were separated out to be burned at the site.
The affidavit also said that local fire departments were frequently called to the site to put out trash fires.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> In December of 2011, the agent interviewed Don Hiller of the Seelyville Fire Department. Hiller told Hentz he was aware Bunnell had been burning waste on Tryon Street "for approximately five to seven years."
Hiller told investigators he remembered a specific incident on March 22, 2010, where he observed a pile of burning debris approximately 60 feet by 60 feet with flames 30 to 40 feet in the air. He described the debris as "construction and demolition waste consisting of beams, lumber, shingles, etc." </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> The agent also interviewed Department of Environmental Protection Solid Waste Specialist Mike Lucsky, who first began inspecting the Bunnell facility in 2004. Lucsky said he made numerous visits to the site and saw evidence of the processing, burning and burial of waste without DEP permits. He said several notices of violations and compliance have been issued to Bunnell for solid waste violations on Tryon Street.
A compliance order issued in March 2011 required removal of burned and buried waste. Lucsky monitored the cleanup of the Tryon Street property, including the extraction of 240 tons of burned and buried waste that was ultimately disposed of at the Keystone Sanitary Landfill. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In November 2011, the agent interviewed another employee of Bunnell, who said he was ordered to take roll-offs of waste to Tryon Street to be sorted and/or burned and he was additionally told to deliver construction and demolition waste to the Hunt property in northern Wayne County. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> In February 2012, agents executed a search warrant at the Hunt property.
During the search, it was learned that Bunnell had paid $200 per load to dump waste at the Hunt property in northern Wayne County.
During the search, areas identified by witnesses were excavated and searched. Extensive burned areas were observed and buried waste was excavated, including construction and demolition waste, household items and ash.
DEP officials said they had not issued any permit for allowing disposal of solid waste at the Hunt property. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> During another interview in January 2012, officials learned that Bunnell Waste never had any scales to weigh waste. The weights of the roll-offs were either estimated or determined at the Wayne County Recycling Center, the investigators were told.
Investigators also learned that Bunnell Waste staff members copied unrelated Keystone Sanitary Landfill weigh tickets that would "then be altered by changing information, including customer name, account number, vehicle code, date and time of transaction."
It states the altered weigh tickets were provided to Bunnell customers with billing/invoice documents.
"Customers were billed on the false weight on the altered Keystone Sanitary Landfill weigh tickets," stated the affidavit.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> In August 2012, investigators interviewed Susan L. Mang, office manager of Bunnell Waste. Mang told investigators that Bunnell is involved in all aspects of the company and when he is not present, it is operated by Jody Rickert.
She added that during the course of the day, company drivers would call in and notify office staffof where they were and the type of load they had picked up. Then, either Joe Bunnell or Rickert directed where the loads would be taken. Loads were either returned directly to Tryon Street, taken to the Wayne County Recycling Center to be weighed and then returned to Tryon Street or delivered to the Keystone landfill for disposal. The affidavit says that loads returned to Tryon Street were either processed, burned and/or buried.
In July 2012, agents interviewed Dan O'Brien, business manager for Keystone Sanitary Landfill. He said Keystone provides customers with weigh tickets documenting transactions at the landfill. He also confirmed that Bunnell Waste is a customer of the landfill.
He said those tickets document the date and time of the transaction, net, gross and tare weight of the vehicle transporting the waste and location within the landfill grid system where the waste is disposed.
O'Brien said he "doubted it was possible for trucks to have the same gross, net and tare weights and stated it was virtually impossible for waste to be disposed of at the landfill in the same grid on different days."
Investigators reviewed 366 Bunnell weigh tickets, invoices and associated billing documents for BWR customers from Jan. 17, 2009, through May 11, 2012. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The agent noted "numerous instances where weigh tickets contained identical information regarding gross, net and tare weights, grid location and driver's signatures."
It was also determined the customers were billed in excess of $2,000 by Bunnell for proper waste disposal. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> The agent cited various Pennsylvania codes which he alleges were violated by Bunnell.
Bunnell was charged with two counts of illegal transportation, one count of illegal dumping, one count of illegal burning, one count of illegal storage, one count of theft by deception and one county of corrupt organizations.
The last two counts are felonies and the other are misdemeanors.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> He was arraigned last Friday by Magisterial District Judge Ted Mikulak and was released on $2,500 unsecured bail.

<span style="font-size: large;">One of the best techniques to stock food waste before transferring to the compost bin is by using a tightly sealed kitchen compost pail or you can also use any plastic container with lid.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcx3kzvZ73mT2IxiActPpigPmKUGVpNG39oMZZj64_d1ZqGWpCNjfxmbfFuNhaIH-MJF47ReXWJgBkz9Wm2OJIeZDR47IcDwdKY49mOfBuy48tVRw5Zsct3MevY7MTFfkKEpslkvhhJBUR/s1600/composter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="waste clearance London" border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcx3kzvZ73mT2IxiActPpigPmKUGVpNG39oMZZj64_d1ZqGWpCNjfxmbfFuNhaIH-MJF47ReXWJgBkz9Wm2OJIeZDR47IcDwdKY49mOfBuy48tVRw5Zsct3MevY7MTFfkKEpslkvhhJBUR/s320/composter.jpg" title="" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Place this near the kitchen so that you can easily transfer your food waste into the pail. Try to transfer the contents of your compost container when its full or when the is a foul odor coming from the food waste. You can also cover the container with paper or newspaper to reduce the smell or gnats.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw8LHwJUhkCqvHTdWpzliwFqQwlX9qI9VAHIX-8l2N_RIxzvKx8LyXZmtoLc5zxFQkGOVLKxcyWJkLHhXk7MNYFlbEQQWTIVWNxQrLPSPcIkJrG5tQ6tIVVLtEXATqCz7sXr1PhmdpiwnJ/s1600/GEDC0342.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw8LHwJUhkCqvHTdWpzliwFqQwlX9qI9VAHIX-8l2N_RIxzvKx8LyXZmtoLc5zxFQkGOVLKxcyWJkLHhXk7MNYFlbEQQWTIVWNxQrLPSPcIkJrG5tQ6tIVVLtEXATqCz7sXr1PhmdpiwnJ/s320/GEDC0342.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Transfer the collected food waste from your container to a much larger bucket .Wash the pail and be ready for the next batch of kitchen waste. A 4-5 gallon container is appropriate for this. Check out your nearest junk shop or hardware store. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmPyoD61BO0net1Vox-OLPJklrzv492a-ABIsQ5wBo_mgoBgmGPTyAga7CENSjZ50Y3JA92I-_3cl9qN8pxf8EQZJzOXK4NDH7XBk9pS3LiHkXjH176la_BYKriV7Azw39xdQgFJXumo2W/s1600/garbage+bucket.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmPyoD61BO0net1Vox-OLPJklrzv492a-ABIsQ5wBo_mgoBgmGPTyAga7CENSjZ50Y3JA92I-_3cl9qN8pxf8EQZJzOXK4NDH7XBk9pS3LiHkXjH176la_BYKriV7Azw39xdQgFJXumo2W/s320/garbage+bucket.jpg" width="319" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Make sure the bucket is accessible from your kitchen so that you can easily empty your food waste. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">One of the best solutions for fruit flies or gnats from going over to your bins is to cover the lid with newspaper and also reduces the smell that is coming out from your compost. Make sure to change the newspaper when it gets damp and falls apart.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">To further reduce the odor and fruit flies, cover the compost with some peat moss,sawdust, rock dust,leaf mulch or good soil.</span><br />

Ministers have been campaigning to councils recycling efforts from dropping weekly collections.<br /><br />Advocates have been been encouraging household to recycle more because garbage bins cannot hold enough waste in the span of 14 days. </span><div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /><i>“More still needs to be done and we continue to push towards our aim of a zero waste economy, with businesses, councils and householders all doing their bit.”<br /><br /><br />Local Government minister Brandon Lewis told The Daily Telegraph: “Research shows that residents overwhelmingly prefer a regular and frequent rubbish collection, but under the previous administration the numbers of weekly services across the country halved while council tax doubled.<br /><br />“Cutting the frequency of collections is a lazy and unnecessary move. It is possible to increase recycling and still have comprehensive weekly service, through better procurement, more joint working and using incentive schemes.”<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></i><br /><br /><br /><br /></span></div>

So we all have to do our bit."<br /><br /><br />All items at the corner shop are being sold for £1 each including electronics stuff and the proceeds goes to the educational workshop conducted by Swansea's recycling volunteers.</span><br />

There are already several collections tanks in 14 of East Sussex HWRC. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">After the oil is collected, it is brought to <b>Living Fuels</b> recovery plan and process to become a bio-liquid called LF100.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The <b>LF 100</b> then is then used for the sister company <b>Living Power</b> for heat and power plants as a source of carbon neutral energy to provide the national grid for emergency power.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">“The best thing to do is for people to put the used oil in plastic bottles, so we can recycle the container as well.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">“Why not make the most of the journey by bringing along any other recyclable items left over from the festive season.”</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Lionel Barnard, West Sussex County Council’s Deputy Leader, with responsibility for waste and recycling, said that the county’s recycling rates could be boosted if more people recycled their cooking oil.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br />He said: “In the UK, we are at the forefront of new technology with respect to recycling, which is illustrated with our excellent overall recycling rate of 44 per cent in West Sussex.<br /><br />“However, we’re always looking for new things for people to recycle to help push this figure even higher, so are really pleased to be launching the service.”<br /><br />Rob Murphy, Operations Director at Living Fuels, added: "Turning cooking oil into a chemical-free bioliquid results in higher levels of energy recovery than manufacturing carbon-hungry biodiesel, making our process the most sustainable use of waste vegetable oil.<br /><br />He added: “[A]s well as providing a valuable source of renewable energy, recycling cooking oil can also help prevent it ending up in the sewerage network.”<br /><br />Collection tanks for used household cooking oil will be set up at the following HWRCs:</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">During the annual Christmas celebration, British household will always end up with exorbitant amount of excess food. We do our shopping, dining and the rest of it goes to the bins. Most of the food we throw can still be eaten to help in our conservation efforts to protect our food sources and improve our financial independence during hard times.<br /><br />In a recent statistics by Love Food Hate Waste, they estimated that we throw around 2 million turkeys, 5 million Christmas puddings and 74 million mince pie.<br /><br />A regular British family spends £169 and 35% of the food that they prepare are thrown away as garbage.With this amount of waste, Love Food Hate Waste has and Unilever will try to assist 12 families in UK to reduce their waste ans spending during the holiday season. The goal is to reduce waste by 25% and their grocery bill by 15%.</span><div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Kathy Cope, a 39-year-old mother of two who lives in Woolton Village, Liverpool, is taking part in the challenge. She says, "Christmas is definitely the most wasteful time of year for us. I overbuy because I want everything to be perfect. It's hard to get portions right and I don't want to appear stingy so I always cook far more than I need to." <br /><br /><br />Britons also poured 15 millions cups of roast turkey fat in the kitchen sink that could fill an Olympic size swimming pool.<br /><br /><br />A research conducted by University of Portsmouth showed an additional of £50m a year on household bills to clear sewers of turkey fats as it becomes hard and soapy material.</span><div>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br />"Our <a href="http://www.clearitwaste.co.uk/recycling.html">recycling centres</a> will happily accept the clutter of people’s packaging, bottles, cans and even Christmas trees.”</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I always look for reasons why I should help my mom cleaning the entire house and she made me realize that keeping our </span><a href="http://www.clearitwaste.co.uk/domestic.html#House_Clearance" style="font-size: x-large;">home clean </a><span style="font-size: large;">would give us these advantages.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><b>To – dos for everyone</b></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Every time my mom asks me to help her cleaning, i am so confused on where to start. Everyone is required to help cleaning. So, I start with my room. I get to know what to do with stuffs in my room after the cleanup. So, if you want everyone to get responsible with their things and trash, you should make them help you in the cleaning. Bond with each other while cleaning, it will be over before you know it.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Lessen allergies</b></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />As for me who has allergic rhinitis, dust and other allergens should never be allowed in my room. I should keep my room clean every day or else, sneezing and watery eyes will get in my way. I don’t want to spend the entire day sneezing because of the accumulated dust in my room. If your kids have allergies or asthma, you should be keeping your home clean or you’ll be spending some of your budget on hospital bills and medicine.<br /><b><br />No more whole day cleanups</b></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><div>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you keep your home clean daily, you don’t have to spend the entire weekend for cleanups. You can go on outing or do some bonding activities with your family. Spending a couple of minutes on wiping the tabletops and sweeping the floor will save you an entire weekend. So, don’t wait for your chores to pile up.</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br /><b>Welcome visitors</b><br /><br />With a clean home, you don’t have to hurry picking up some trash on the floor or wiping the tabletops or worst, picking up those shirts on the sofa. Be prepared always, you wouldn't know if somebody from your neighborhood or family would drop by your house – you won’t have to be sorry that your house is full of mess.<br /></span><h2>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Clean and healthy living</b></span></h2>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Every time I see the messy tabletops, I get so stressed. I want everything to be clean and in order. Having a clean home would not only bring you a good ambiance but, it would also keep you away from allergies and illnesses caused by the unseen microbes in your sofa or even in your bed. Always keep in mind, clean home, healthy living.<br /></span><a href="http://www.clearitwaste.co.uk/" style="font-size: x-large;">Waste Clearance London</a><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
