For those of you who don't know, packing-peanuts are usually made from Styrofoam. A soft fluffy substance that, I believe is made from plastic. It is also, for those of you who don't know, non-biodegradable. Excuse my pun but, in 'peanut' terms, that means that it does not dissolve and turn back into dirt like leaves or food. Instead it keeps going like the energizer bunny, poisoning our environment and taking up space in landfills. (That is why I encourage recycling whenever possible.) But! I found out about a year ago that they now make biodegradable packing-peanuts. It's totally awesome! You lick them and they start to melt away before your eyes!
So, your assignment for today: Live a little greener. Either recycle your homework, or roast marshmallows over it. S'more party! Did you know that you can get money for your aluminum cans or glass bottles? My grandparents used to have a friend who was saving his coke cans so he could get the money and buy baseball tickets. That's a cool dude. I'm not saying you have to go vegan or stop bathing, but at least make a little effort. Let spider live (unless it's poisonous, of course), throw the single Kleenex in the garbage instead of wasting another flush, spring is the time to appreciate the world we live in and treat it kindly. So let's all be a little more Eco-friendly. Go Green!
