Reuseing and Renewing

Being Green can also mean seeing Green. Creativity can be a solution to reducing waste, and in the process we can save money!

Paper products are one of the main items that end up in our dumps. Take a look at these video and be inspired to reuse at least one paper product from you home.

Another culprit of waste are plastic products. Such items like, bottles, plastic spoons, packaging,  and an infinite number of others. The following videos will teach you how to reuse these items and in the process create functional items for you home.

Glass, yet another item that ends up in dumps. Many of these glass items were once food containers, and with lots of imagination one can reuse them in almost any area of home. From the kitchen to the back yard, glass recycling is smart!

Lastly, another item that ends up clumping our dumps are various types of metals. Lately though, people have begun to recycle these items for the cash value that is offered for them. Take a look at these videos and see who you can turn a can into something useful.
