Thanks for helping out, Steve! I like your idea of enlisting all walkers/runners/joggers to pick up recyclables along their way and get them into the recycling stream!
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome.
ReplyDeleteThe idea is simple. There are plenty of walkers around town. We should be able to get a sponsor to put on a reflective vest, with the recycling symbol. Folks could wear that to be safe walking about. They could carry a plastic bag (any one from the local stores would do) to pick up the recyclables are the walk. The bag and contents can be recycled together.
