Green is important to me as I have kids. I am not a nutty tree hugger, and consider myself fairly well informed ie I knew how lame it is to purchase an electric car and think it is doing the green thing. I have a policy of recycling things I have finished with. This policy means I will sell off anything I can make more than $50 everything else goes on freecycle. I like to think if it hits freecycle that when they finish with it it is less likely to end up as land fill. Charity stores where I live take nothing that needs power for safety reasons so freecycle makes a lot of sense. We found a local guy building computers for free for the elderly in our area via freecycle so all comptuer bits go there. We found a lady assisting disadvantaged kids complete high school to go to uni and passed on school books uniforms etc. It really is a matter of a few minutes and as I have said we are not wacky tree huggers and do consume lots of new technology and products.
