Recycle more... even the little tiny tags
I used to live in an apartment and it was small and cozy and the recycling bin was always just a few steps away. At first I recycled the normal things like cans, water bottles, etc. But because it was so close I started recycling anything I could. Tags from new clothes, receipts, shampoo bottles, absolutely anything that could be recycled no matter how small. So then I got married and we bought a house. I moved my old recycling can into the kitchen. But I hate clutter and the recycling bin was so far from the bathroom that it was easier to just throw things away. Shame on me! So I got a plastic bag... one of those ones I am trying to avoid but still get sometimes... and hung it on the door handle in the master bathroom. Now I can again recycle all the little things. It takes away the temptation to throw things away just because it is easier. Once the bag is full I take it downstairs and recycle it in the outside bin. This is just a little idea but it does help me so I thought I would share.
