Me?I'm sitting here reading this on June 5th over here, wondering why this hasn't been promoted in our media more>Didn't know.
Guess I'll pull all that corrugated cardboard out of the skip ,rip it up and compost it.
Yeah, we do dump a lot of stuff that could be recycled.
Resolved to do more.

Hadn't heard about WED here either but I notice that there is an event in the city of Colima, a couple of hours away. It is one of only two registered WED events for Mexico.

Jim, there are seven events registered for NZ. Any near you?

For my part, I will take my recycling to my sister's house today because her trash collection service picks up recycling (rare in Mexico) and mine does not. I will also take a bag of leftover medications to the animal shelter today. Because I am moving, I will make a concerted effort to find re-use opportunities for the things I cannot keep (very easy to do here) instead of tossing them in the trash. Also, I vow to plant trees at my new house.
