Sacha Gee-Burns is the Environmental Educator/Public Outreach Coordinator for the Solid Waste District of La Porte County in Indiana. She wrote about her best reuse practices in the district's quarterly educational newsletter, One Man's Trash. Her creative ideas included an original reuse for her old washing machine drum!
Sacha reminded her readers that, "The hierarchy of waste reduction goes like this: Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, and then Recycle. If we look at how much waste we create these days, it is easy to see that we need to rethink how we are doing things. As consumers, we need to take a hard look at which products are truly the better buy --- not only for us, but for our environment."
