I just thought I would create a thread that doesn't really belong in the rest of the car stuff, but that we could interact to help improve the effectiveness of a group at limiting our impact to the environment. RecyclingOf course, Recycling is a good way of recapturing precious materials so that they can be reused in making other consumer goods. Aluminum, metal, glass and various plastics can be all recycled, and should be because you paid for them. Up to 40% of the price of whatever you buy is the cost of packaging! . Part of this money can be recouped by recycling, especially precious metals such as aluminum, all those beer cans and soda cans. Steel and other metals from left over parts can also be turned into cash at a recycling facility, such as Great Northwest Recycling on Grissom rd (210) 523-8155.
