It's Not Easy Being Green...

In my continued effort to do my part to reduce waste and take better care of our planet I discovered this website. It has lots of good info and tips on reducing, reusing, and recycling. It can also help you find recyling centers in your area if, like me, you don't have curbside recycling where you live. I already recycle aluminum cans, but now I can recycle cardboard, paper, tin cans, and magazines, too! I can't wait!
I've also stopped buying bottled water (and successfully convinced Jeremy to stop buying it, too! Hooray!) One because it's crazy expensive and two, apparently it's not all that great for you anyway. Plus it takes tons of petroleum to produce those nifty little plastic bottles that everyone loves so much - bottles that leak carcinogens into the water!Argh! Who knew!
I'm thinking about composting, too, but I need to do a little more research on it first.
Be green! :)

Hey Marissa, it's Byron Hall! Found your blog from your MySpace page, which I found from Aubrey, wich I found from Chris Faile, which....you get the idea.

Just wanted to say hi and that I like your choice of Ernie Hasse & Signature Sound. I got to see them in person last year.

Take Care!!
