America Recycles Day!

On the other hand, having spent some time lately visiting my sister in North Carolina where they don't have curbside recycling (my San Francisco "we made composting the law" sensibilities continue reel!) I can definitely see the need to raise awareness in parts of our great country. People don't recycle, and they need Recycling 101!
This is the 12th year of ARD, a day dedicated to educating yourself about recycling, and making the choice of buying recycled products. You know you look at that empty orange juice carton every single time and think, "Wait, is this trash, or recycling, or maybe compost?" -- this is the day you actually sit down at your computer and find the answer!
