I was 15 and my boyfriends dad came home so I had to jump out the window and my boyfriend didn't throw my pants or underware out and he close the window. But his dad caught as anyways.
He said, "all I could see was this big round white *** running down the road."
Thank god my boyfriend came driving down the street like 15 min. later with my pants.
Now that really gave new meaning to frezze your *** off!

We converted to energy efficient light bulbs a couple of years ago, just had one burn out. While I was replacing it I noticed a small white warning label on the new package. These bulbs contain MERCURY folks! MUST be disposed of at an authorized facility, call the 800# on package for instructions. You can't just throw them away or we'll have mercury leaking all over the landfills. I know that there is only a small amount of mercury in each bulb but check out the directions on how to clean up a broken bulb-they recommend the broken pieces be sealed in a zip loc type bag and taken to the proper disposal facility.
Good luck finding somewhere to take them, I called the phone number and got no help, I called several landfills in my area and they can't take them and don't know who can. Admittedly, it may take years to pile up the amount of mercury that will cause a problem so I guess we'll just leave it to our kids to clean up, if they haven't been poisoned by the mercury already.

would you support converting coastal wetlands to sugar cane crop? the production of ethonal is more efficient at sea level. sugar cane contains more glucose which would covert to ethonal. if we are going to get very deep into ethonal then the distilation has to be done along the coasts, preferably near the production of the glucose source.

Recycling seems to be a big item in today's environmental solution set. Maybe it would have helped a lot more 30 years ago, when the usage rate for say, aluminum cans, wasn't so high. Have we passed the 'point of no return' on these things, where it only makes sense to stop using them altogether?

I used aluminum cans as an example because there's a huge energy output in finding and mining bauxite into aluminum, and the relationship between aluminum and Alzheimers may prove to be as harmful as that of lead for drinking goblets was for the Roman Empire. We don't 'need' aluminum cans; it's a major expense to society to manage them.

Then, the cans use up tremendous amounts of separation, washing, and other water-intensive tasks to recycle. Can't we just stop producing things not in our best interests? Like aluminum cans?

According to information on the EPA web site; "When people reuse things or when products are made with less material, less energy is needed to extract, transport, and process raw materials and to manufacture products."

I am having some difficulty accepting this statement as 100% accurate. The materials obtained from recycled products also need to be transported and processed, don't they? I would think there would be a lot more transporting and processing associated with recycled materials than with virgin materials. Granted it probably requires more energy to extract a virgin material from mother nature versus obtaining the recycled materials. But still, the amount of transporting and processing required of recycled materials must offset that one benefit. Does anyone have any info about this? Where I might locate more information about this aspect of recycling would also be appreciated.
