What’s a big environmentally friendly company that you’ve probably never heard of?
N-Viro Here’s a link:
N-Viro has generated sales in excess of $40 million since it’s IPO. They take biosolids (sewage sludge) and use lime and other mineral rich combustion byproducts to convert that sludge into biominerals for agriculture.
The resulting product(s) N-Viro Soil is used around the world in farm applications and landscaping, topsoil ammending and in home gardens.
Every year we have a garage sale, and every year, LOADS of stuff leaves this house never to return.
I’ve found that ‘if’ you have an item that should be recycled BUT you’re at a loss as to what to do with it, well, you can sell it at a garage sale! That’s reusing! That’s recycling.
Case in point. I’ve a half full gallon container of Formica adhesive. IF I were to formally recycle it, I’d have to wait until the city decided to have an all town recycle event. When they do that, you can haul in paint, etc, for ‘proper’ recycling and people can sort thru the cans and take what they want. BUT, WHEN is that day?
This can of adhesive is still viable, and I can’t just toss it. That wouldn’t be very environmentally friendly, but hey, I can stick a price tag of a quarter on it and it’ll be gone the first hour of the garage sale!
