While we laugh, there is truth in the message...here is another example.

Here we are in a new year and each of us has his or her own path to follow. But as we go down that path we find that we converge at several spots along the way. Fighting pollution and conservation are examples of those points where we can act to make a difference.

For instance, recycling things like aluminum, glass, and plastics, really recycling...not just once in a while...will reduce the impact on our trash and reduce the use of energy at the same time...
As an example, here is the deal on Aluminum...it is the most prevalent metal on earth...much more than iron for instance...but it takes a great deal of energy to make aluminum from scratch because it is found in a variety of rocks rather than a near pure state. We find that recycling generates high quality aluminum without all of the energy use...less then half actually...and lots less carbon release. That is a win-win... and its only one example.

So...you recycle glass, cans, plastics, aluminum on a regular basis and your land fill or waste management program gets a break, the environment gets a break, and the energy consumed is reduced...giving us all a break.

Simple actions like this make a world of difference... for us and future generations.
