Going Green Questions? 1. My city does trash pickup, but not out as far as I live. I will have to take it to the center. Do I seperate each kind of item they take or put them together? Like do I have to seperate each color of glass and each type of plastic?

2. Does it matter what kind of tree you plant? For example is a blue spruce less helpful than an oak or maple?

3. I love flowers and plants. Do they do any good? Can a hobby be helpful?

Also, you have to remove the lids from jars to recycle them. What do you do with the lids?

Best Answer

1. It depends on the city - in most, I think you%26#039;d just lump the plastic and glass together and recycle paper separately. Check with your city public works or whatevery it%26#039;s called.

2. Any tree is better than none- I%26#039;d plant what you like and take joy in knowing it%26#039;s a good thing.

3. Absolutely, they add oxygen and consume co2. Certainly, a hobby can be helpful: gardening as you allude to, cycling, walking, recycling in your community. Take charge.

• 1. Some places allow you to recycle the lids with metal. You need to talk to your town to find out the regs.
  
  2. That, I don%26#039;t know.
  
  3. Having a spider plant, for example, in your room, can help to make your room air healthier. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and resperate oxygen. We do the opposite. That%26#039;s a very good symbiotic relationship.
• *1 It is advisable to seperate plastic-non biodegradable wastes from the rest. as u like gardening,the kitchen wastes can be used as a manure for ur garden,which may also reduce ur trash troubles.
  *2 u can plant fast growing trees or ur native trees[as i dont know which country u belong].
  *3 i feel it is funny!trees have as many uses as the number of bones u have
