The best e-mail I received this month

Today I can say I received the best e-mail of the month. My dearest italian friend in Cincinnati, Eleonora Fusco, sent the following e-mail to all her friends, and luckly I was among them. I was so delighted I asked her if I could publish the e-mail on my blog. Please send this e-mail to a friend or a realtive or a neighbor or a coworker who lives in the Hamilton County area.

Subject: For Hamilton County Residents: Free recycling programs for household hazardous waste, eletronics, yardwaste, metals...
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008
Dear All,
I have found and used this site for recycling information. I have used the facilities and remained favorably impressed by the service. Please circulate among the Hamilton County residents to raise awareness. Remember this is a service for Hamilton county residents only. You need to bring with you a proof of residence – i.e. utility bill.
These services in the most part do not extend to businesses, non-profits or churches.

Frequently Asked Questions
http://www.hcdoes.org/sw/FAQ3R.htm#why

Each year, Hamilton County residents recycle over 33,500 tons of material. A typical household recycles 500 pounds of material every year – this is equal to the weight of one grizzly bear!

DO YOUR PART!

Recycling creates jobs – strengthening Ohio's economy. Incinerating 10,000 tons of waste creates one job; landfilling 10,000 tons of waste creates six jobs; recycling 10,000 tons of waste creates 36 jobs.

Recycling reduces pollution – making the air we breathe cleaner and the water we drink safer. Recycling 35 percent of our trash reduces global warming emissions equivalent to taking 36 million cars off the road.

Recycling saves resources – ensuring we will have them to use in the future. Throwing away a single aluminum can, versus recycling it, is like pouring out six ounces of gasoline. Last year, Americans recycled enough aluminum cans to conserve the energy equivalent of more than15 million barrels of oil.
