Well, 23 years ago I used cloth diapers, I have used cloth napkins for about 30 years, and today still use the cloth napkins and use cloth bags at the grocery and of course, recycle everything I can... :thumbsup:

 :wave: I buy products that are in recycled containers. I also use cloth bags when I go grocery shopping. We recycle news papers, carboard boxes, soda cans, plastic bottles and glass jars. We have a compost pile at our church for use in our community garden so we also recycle all compostable food waste for that. I have been trying to recycle for alot of years. It would be great if local governments would inplement more recycling in the cities.  :wave:

I didn't use cloth diapers because we have a water shortage and I couldn't see using the extra water doing laundry that I could skip by using disposables. But we do recycle the usuals paper, plastic, aluminum, glass. We have switched to natural cleaners.

I'm hoping that our city makes the switch from recycling bins where everything is separated to one big bin that you can put all the recycling in. I think more people would recycle if they could just have one bin for trash and one bin for recycling.

My way of going green is becoming a vegetarian. I have been a vegetarian for almost two years now. :) I know one person becoming a vegetarian doesn't really make a difference, but every little bit counts, right? :P

Honestly I don't do too much to be green although I do make an effort.  I recycle all my plastic, glass and aluminum.  I also recycle all paper and cardboards.  I reuse plastic bags.  And I try to consume as much water while bathing or washing dishes.  But I guess the best one would be that I dont own a car, so my daily commute is done by train mostly.

I recycle anything I can recycle. Some supermarkets pay a couple cents for a recycled bags, so I take advantage of it.
