Not ready for the Cloth Diaper?

Want to recycle more but can't stand the thought of washing poopy diapers? Your knight in shining armor has arrived!


Knowaste


A British phenomenon that is quickly catching on in other places. This company specialises in processing and recycling old "regular" diapers. They use the recycled material to make plastic wood, plastic tiles, roofing material, absorbent material, and other things!

They also recycle adult incontinence products and feminine hygiene products. How sweet is that?

I just caught myself being lazy!

So as I was catching up on a new green trend, Hypermiling, I noticed my desk lamp was on. It's the middle of a bright day and I have the windows open. Why is my desk lamp on? So I reached over and switched it off. No problem.

Then I noticed the kitchen light is on AND the living room fan is on! What is going on here? So while I was getting up to turn all those things off I went ahead and switched off the power strip leading to the TV. I'm not using it so why have it on?

Look around, are you being lazy too? No one will notice if you get up and go turn some things off but your power bill will be a little lighter this month.

Stay green,
