On The Precipice

While reading the morning paper, I noted that the local seniors activity hall was welcoming members now 40 and up. It appeared as if while 30 was the new 20 somehow within just a decade 40 weathered into the new senior. No gratis bus pass or early retirement specials but nonetheless in the view of this hall at least graduating into a sort of novice eldership.

Say What: Waste Free 101

The first thing people ask me when I tell them we've gone to a zero waste household is what does that mean. The immediate follow-up is, does that include recycling? Well we'd definitely have some serious trouble if it didn't. So a zero waste household is a household with no garbage can. Thus no magic garbage faeries to come whisk away our "waste" once a week. No more out of sight out of mind with our twenty-first century disposable realities. And yes, this does mean getting super serious about recycling.

The Zero Waste Challenge

OK, so my roomie, Miss Bliss, and I talked it over last weekend and we decided as a household to take on the zero waste challenge. Inspired by a recent article in Ascent Magazine detailing one woman's waste free odyssey, it made me think it's time to take my environmental consciousness to the next level. So I have been doing my research, which mostly consisted at re-looking at what the f**k I was throwing in the garbage, and paying a visit to the local recycling depot to have a long chat about what they accepted, and what they didn't. It turned out in this day and age you could recycle quite a bit.
