    Lovely video, thank you Keri. Over here in the UK, we have been reducing our household waste too. I love how you spend time comparing your recyclable waste to your landfill waste. We have an eight year old daughter, who is doing great with her recycling too – as you said, if we begin with making habits from a young age, it becomes part of ‘normal life’.

    We now put out less than 100gms of non recyclable waste per week and haven’t had our bin collected for 6 months!

    Keep spreading the word for a brighter future!

    warm wishes

    That is a really nice video. My 5 year old loves to recycle! One thing we do every couple of days is make a craft out of our recycling products. She likes to make recycled robot toys out of paper towel tubes and yogurt containers. When she is done playing with her toy, she simply puts it make into the recycling container.
