I'm an Avid Recycler and I Drive an SUV

Recommended Posts

I drive an SUV like I stole it. It has a big engine and is fast. Yea me. I also drive a beater old ford escort wagon. And a tractorette. Soon we'll be driving a couple of horses. :)
We burn our trash b/c we live way the f*ck out in the country and there is no recycling. Things we can't burn that would otherwise be recycled, a trash company comes and picks up.

I like chocolate chip cookie dough poptarts. And meat.

I miss Lee.
And JP.
And Chris. And...

Sold the Harley, got a Honda Shadow. I ride it, too. But it gets good mileage.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

I drive a 2006 Honda Civic.
I recycle plastic, glass and metal.
I use energy efficient light bulbs in certain areas of my home.
I use the plastic bags you get from the supermarket as garbage bags in my bathrooms.

But, most conservationist people give me the creeps.:P

I've been riding my bike lately to work too...this month I'm working 1 1/2 hours from home. 50mpg is good.

My associate degree is in environmental restoration, and my bachelor degree is in environmental quality. I don't recycle and can't remember the last time I got 18 mpg.

Edit to add: Also, I drive to work every day despite my office being less than a mile from my house. :D

I don't recycle, and I drive a little tiny economy car.

When I first moved here, you couldn't recycle anything but aluminum cans without driving a little over 100 miles to do it. We've got some recycling now (plastic bottles and newspaper), but I haven't gotten back in the habit yet.

For all of you that recycle (I only do aluminum), when you get a free half hour, check out the show "Penn and Teller: Bullshit!" on recycling.

Smoking is a combination test for intelligence and resistance to marketing/peer pressure. All smokers have failed at least one of these.

That's just me.

How are you?

:P



I drive an SUV and recycle too!

And I take all my beer cans and bottles and wine bottles (and milk cartons and plastic bottles and jugs and tetra paks) to the bottle depot and they give me money for them so I can buy more beer and wine and milk and bottled water and I get to drink all that stuff AND recycle all THOSE again!

My only concern is the dent I'm putting in the beer and wine reservoirs ... what do we do when they're all gone??

Bah ... don't have kids, don't care if they have any left!
