Are you green?

I use compact fluorescent bulbs, and I use my pressure washing machine and spin dryer, which uses soooo much less water and electricity. But I throw away too much stuff. Whatever happened to trash compactors?

I recently read a story (sorry, can't remember where) about a guy fighting his garbage bill because he generates -- NO -- garbage. None. I'm thinking, how is this possible?

I bet they could reduce waste drastically by charging by volume. (Or do they--dunno, I live in apartment.)

I put out one bag of trash every three weeks or so, but pay the same as my neighbors that put out five or six barrels every week.
