We raise chickens and those as you know they produce waste. So, when we clean out their coop we have a composting pile. So we can reuse the stuff to make garden beds.

Hi Mr . Smedes: Hope you are well. You are really helping me in APES . I have a quick question: Does over recycling in some ways hurt the planet more than not recycling at all?

I don't understand why it's not common practice to wash Ziplock bags. Particularly the nice ones with a zipper. You could buy one package of Ziplock bags and use it for years without having to buy new ones.
