    I have been so remiss in signing in and following through L( But it's never too late. I have been doing my meatless meals, reducing waste, and will implement my recycling plastic bag program at work TODAY!

    I am starting a recycling program at work. We recycyle a little at our office (paper mostly) but we still use plastic cups and throw them away after a single use.Every day, I also see single us plastic grocery bags in our kitchen garbage cans. These should be recycled. But second, I want to encourage people to think before even taking a bag from a lunch vendor (or from home or a local store) just to carry their lunch a handful of steps to the elevator bank and then to our work kitchen only to throw the bag out after one use. So recycle if you do take a bag, but maybe, let's not take a bag at all!
