One of Recycla’s new favorite blogs is 365 Days of Trash. Since the beginning of the year, the blogger, Dave, has been keeping all of his trash and recycling in his basement in order to better understand his carbon footprint and think of ways to lessen it. He makes detailed lists every day of what he threw away, recycled, or composted and posts the results on his blog.
Dave also blogs about related issues and his posts are always informative. He even has a list of rules he follows for this project, which Recycla encourages you to read, as it really is a good exercise in thinking about one’s own consumption.

Recycla is looking for more ways to cut back on how much STUFF she brings into her house. This is difficult, as she has two children who seem to accumulate STUFF just like rabbits multiply. Luckily, the entire family is savvy about their recycling and have assorted recycling bins scattered around their house, which is a good beginning step. All the same, Recycla is trying to do more.
The Eco Women are curious to know what YOU have done to reduce your consumption lately and what steps you think could take to do more.
