Whenever I see footage or a photo of a sea animal caught in a trash bag, or a plastic ring that was used to hold pop bottles, I get one of the worst sinking feelings in my stomach.

Often, it is a complete accident. It may not have been littering, the bag might Continue reading →

Although I did not grow up on a farm, as a child I did spend my fair share of time at them. Two of my uncles and my grandfather had a good deal of land that they were able to plant on. One of my uncles owns a complete old fashioned farm, complete with cows, chickens and countless bales of hay. And for me, that’s what bales mean, hay. They bind it tightly so it can be easily transported and can be used at a later time. Yet this is only one Continue reading →

Cardboard waste is often hard to deal with. The pieces are large and awkwardly shaped making them take up too much space in trashcans, recycling bins and dumpsters.

To battle this inconvenience, cardboard balers are often employed. While they are designed for baling cardboard and corrugated cardboard, often they can also be used for papers and Continue reading →
