Recycling Police: 4. Personal Change #1 - Navy Showers

http://weonlygetoneplanet.blogspot.com/2007/10/personal-change-1-navy-showers.html

October 15, 2007. 4 Personal Change #1 - Navy Showers. As the site greenasathistle.com states, this concept means that: "while you’re standing there fussing with shampoo bottles and getting all sudsy, there isn’t any excess water going down the drain. By the time you’ve finished, the H2O should’ve only been running for about two minutes. Beginning with my shower tomorrow morning I am implementing this change. November 27, 2009 at 5:53 PM.

Recycling Police: 5. Change #2

http://weonlygetoneplanet.blogspot.com/2007/10/change-2.html

October 22, 2007. Change #2 involves two parts: refusing plastic bags and using drink containers instead of buying plastic bottles [which saves money AND the environment]. Germany does not use plastic bags. Apparently they havent for a while now, everyone uses reuseable bags. My friend who grew up in Germany told me she was not aware there was such a thing as plastic bags until she came to Canada. We should follow suit. Wow thats wonderful, thanks car rent in pune.
