Can't stop thinking....trash

I just can't stop thinking about trash. I know weird, right?

Last week I saw on some TV show I was watching about how a couple decided to go trash free for a year. I can't remember the number exactly but at the end of the year they had under 20 items of trash in a box. I just can't wrap my brain around how I could do that, but it does have me thinking about things.

There are probably so many more things my family could recycle then what we really do and I am trying to be more aware of those things, but how do I get my husband and children on the same page as me? My children don't really think about those things that can be recycled and just toss it in the garbage.

So I have set out a goal of teaching them about all the things that can be recycled instead of throwing it in the trash.

I know I will still have a lot of trash but at least it will be a start.
