TreeHugger has a great recycling guide, How to Green Your Recycling.
From TreeHugger:
Almost four decades ago, a US paper company wanted a symbol to communicate its products’ recycled content to customers. The design competition they held was won by Gary Anderson, a young graphic designer from the University of Southern California. His entry, based on the Mobius strip (a shape with only one side and no end) is now universally recognized as the symbol for recycling. To many people, recycling conjures up the blue plastic bins and bottle drives. But recycling is a design principal, a law of nature, a source of creativity, and a source of prosperity. For anyone looking to make recycling a more integral part of their lives, this guide is an overview of the basic legwork as well as some of the finer and more advanced concepts that have emerged in recent years.
Thanks Annmarie.
I stopped a lot of my recycling at the source. I have a membership with MyJunkTree.com and I longer receive all that junk in the mail. I stopped pounds upon pounds of this stuff coming to my home. The company made it real easy to stop all teh catalogs I no longer wanted and I can’t rember the last time I received a Credit card offer. Check these guy sout.
