I will Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

Sonya Scott 4/08/2025 5:56 AMI'm looking for somewhere to recycle glass in the east central Illinois region. The place I take my recycling doesn't accept glass so my garage is where I currently have it stored. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!! -
Sonya Scott 4/04/2025 9:48 AMThe ecochallenge fits right into how I normally function in my life. Additionally, I have daily signed petitions and sent emails to companies and legislators regarding climate, food, access to healthcare, and animal/earth rights, laws, and other concerns. I do this through organizations I support including Earthjustice, Friends of the Earth, Humane World for Animals, PETA, and the Nature Conservancy.-
