[QUOTE="Pam R, post: 203638, member: 108"] I did know that about the flourescents. They seem to seldom burn out compared to the standards, but will go to recycle when they do. Regarding beef: industrial raised beef has a very bad balance of Omega 6:12's - 1: 12. Grass fed has the best balance: Omega 6: 12 - 1:2 ratio. So while spending $2/lb. for beef sounds good, it can seriously affect your health. Freecycle is great. But our local one has grown to 7000 members and it's really hard to get anything now. :(( But it's GREAT for getting rid of stuff. :)) We've composted and recycled things for decades, because we have to pay $2 a bag for trash. The compost makes lovely stuff for the gardens, if done right. :)) Kitty litter here is just sawdust. We use sawdust for the barn animals and bring a feed bag up to the house for the house cat. A little lime sprinkled in the bottom keeps the smell away. VERY cheap. Disposal? Well, ours we dump over the bank and it turns to compost, but NOT any we use in the gardens. I expect this is only practical for rural folks. Pam R. [/QUOTE]
