The earth when young was a nice place to live,\nTill man came along, and made the world give,\nNow the land is being polluted, And the air too,\nLets learn to recycle, and keep the earth new.

Your recycling program. It turns out that at my high school we have recycle bins, but we don't even have a recycling contract with disposal company, so everything gets trashed anyway.

One step at a time. Recycle. Compost.  Talk to your friends about it.  Small steps lead to bigger steps.

Recycling is the collection of used materials that would otherwise be waste to be broken down and remade into new products. Similarly, reuse is collecting waste such as food and drink containers to be cleaned, refilled and resold. Proponents of recycling say that it prevents waste and reduces the consumption of new raw materials. Commonly recycled materials include glass, paper, aluminum, asphalt, and steel. These materials can be derived either from pre-consumer waste (materials used in manufacturing) or post-consumer waste (materials discarded by the consumer).Many manufactured products are not readily biodegradable and take up space in landfills or must be incinerated. Recycling is an alternative to this. In fact, now there are machines that can recycle waste into energy sources and water. In theory, recycling would allow a continuing reuse of materials for the same purpose. In practice, recycling most often extends the useful life of a material, but in a less-versatile form. For example, when paper is recycled, the fibers shorten, making it less useful for high grade papers. Other materials can suffer from contamination, making them unsuitable for food packaging.\n\nOf the 24 OECD-countries where figures were available, only 16% of household waste was recycled in 2002.\n\n\nUS issues\nA neighbourhood recycling station in Oxford, England.\nEnlarge\nA neighbourhood recycling station in Oxford, England.\n\nState support for recycling may be more expensive than alternatives such as landfill; recycling efforts in New York City in the USA cost $57 million per year.1 Environmentalists argue that the benefits to society from recycling compensate for any difference in cost.\n\nA number of U.S. states, such as California, Hawaii, Oregon, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, Iowa, Michigan and New York have passed laws that establish deposits or refund values on beverage containers in order to promote recycling. Most are five cents per can or bottle. Michigan's deposit is 10 cents.\n\nSome cities, such as New York and Seattle, have even created laws that enforce fines upon citizens who throw away certain recyclable materials.\n[edit]\n\nReuse\nThe 600ml brown bottle are the "standard beer reused bottle" in Brazil.\nEnlarge\nThe 600ml brown bottle are the "standard beer reused bottle" in Brazil.\n\nOne form of recycling is the reuse of goods, especially bottles. Reuse is distinguished from most forms of recycling, where the good is reduced to a raw material and used in the making of a new good (example: crushing of bottles to make glass for new bottles). Refillable bottles are used extensively in many European countries; for example in Denmark, 98% of bottles are refillable, and 98% of those are returned by consumers. [1] These systems are typically supported by deposit laws and other regulations.\n\nIn some developing nations like India and Pakistan, the cost of new bottles often forces manufacturers to collect and refill old glass bottles for selling cola and other drinks. India and Pakistan also have a way of reusing old newspapers: "Kabadiwalas" buy these from the readers for scrap value and reuse them in packaging or in recycling plants. These scrap intermediaries also help in disposing other articles and metals from the consumers and is a lucrative business for the resellers.

This integrated system was made possible by the state's control of agriculture; the complexities of continuing it in a market economy after German reunification meant the system had to be discontinued. Organic household waste is still collected separately in some towns in Germany, and may be used for fertilizer or landfilled in more sensitive locations where other waste cannot be.\n\nIn North America, organic household waste, especially yard waste such as leaves on a seasonal basis, is oft

SheRa...yikes...you know, you posed some thought provoking questions.\n\nThe environment - what am I doing to make it better.  Shame on me but I am doing nothing.  I really hate trying to find the right bin to place plastic containers in.  I don't want to have that stuff separated in special bins inside my place since there's not much room as it is.  I don't even get the newspaper because I'm just too lazy to recycle.  I don't drink sodas in the can, so that's out.  I do have plants at home that I take good care of.\n\nCleaners...do you mean, household?  I like Tilex - especially for the shower - keeps the shower doors nice and clean (no film, no soap residue, very clear).  I use Oxy for the stove top to keep it shiny.  Tide is the detergent I use for laundry, which I had to do.  I usually clean on the weekends - takes about 3 hours.  I have OCD, so one little hairball on the carpet...and I'm just nuts.\n\nI listen to old style music that I grew up on.  The softer music with words that you can fall in love with, that carry you to the place in time, bringing back the fondest of memories.  \n\nTools - I have a hammer and some...hmmm...what do you call those things - probably screwdrivers and some other rachet things or whatever.  I have something that's rechargeable - not sure what the heck that is.  My husband will know what to do with these things when he gets home. :)\n\nHave fun today!  This was different to answer - much more refreshing than the constant, racial, hate, blah blah blah stuff! :)

Fossil fuels: Reduce your car-miles.  Carpool, take public transportation, walk, or ride a bike.  Support the use of clean-burning fuels, like compressed natural gas.\n\nRefuse: Recycle plastics, paper, and metals.  Anything which can be used in any fashion should go to a resale shop.  Try to only use Type 1 and Type 2 plastics, which are easily recyclable.\n\nDon't flush anything besides rain water down storm drains.  \n\nWhen swimming or boating or camping or spending time in the wild, gather your trash and pack it out with you.
