We have all heard those three words: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Whether the concern is with the rapidly changing landscape, pollution of the Earth, depletion of resources, or global climate change, the are steps we can ALL take to reduce the environmental impact of our existence.
Pair these actions with either Reduce, Reuse, or Recycle.

1. Dump and Run is a nonprofit organization that organizes the collection of college students' castoff items in the spring, so they can be sold to incoming students in the fall.
2. Start a compost pile with yard trimmings and food scraps.
3. Wherever possible, replace disposable products with reusable ones - ink cartridges, coffee filters, batteries, etc.
4. Think before you buy any product. Do you REALLY need it?
5. While shopping, if you only buy a few products skip the shopping bag. For larger purchases, bring your own.
