I'm thinking of sending letters to all the apartment complexes in my town, including the one where I live, and asking them to consider placing paper recycling bins near the mail boxes (in place of the trashcans that are sometimes there), so that people can quickly review their mail in front of the mailboxes then recycle their junk mail.

In order to encourage the apartment complexes that this is easy and desirable, I can get people who live in the complexes to sign petitions, which I can mail along with the letters. In the letters, I will explain where the owners can get these bins and how they can go about getting the local dump, for lack of a better word, to pick them up. People are more apt to do things if they know how.

Now I just have to act on this great idea. If you guys like this or tell me that you will do the same! it will certainly give me that push I need.

My editing service, Pure Text (http://www.pure-text.net), is green because it wastes no paper, ink, pencils, erasers, etc. However, it is wasteful because it takes energy for others to view the site, for me to maintain the site, and for me to edit on my computer. I cannot think of any ways to make Pure Text any more green and any less wasteful. Any ideas?

I love my love gloves! I can't believe I haven't put pictures up yet. I bought them last year! I shall wear them for many years to come.
