It's amazing what moving to a house with a recycling box does to you. Before I lived here, I couldn't really be bothered with separating paper, card, class and the like. I didn't know much about it and I wasn't interested in learning.
My new house has 2 landlords that care about the environment and they have created plenty of eco-friendly solutions for the house. Because they care it's made me care too!
Now I find myself separating all of the recycling, turning the lights off, switching the heating off, etc etc.
The other thing is that I'm loving is making my own cleaning products and learning plenty eco household cleaning tips from articles online.
Do you recycle? Do you have any tips to share?

Ive always been a little obsessed with massive constructions like tall buildings and basically, anything that makes me feel really tiny. I remember when I was younger I used to pass this HUGE building with a clock right at the top, which used to dwarf me. It was awe inspiring. I was just taken back to that childhood feeling again after reading this story in the Lincoln Courier about a very impressive 5.5 mile-long conveyor belt theyre building next to Old Route 66 in the USA.
