Recycling

This morning started with breakfast. Next to the breakfast area there were stalls on RTI, AID Tempe and Students for Bhopal. I spent some time with Keshav and Aquene looking over some Dow ADs and their "truth versions".

Keshav started off the sessions today by talking about recycling. He mentioned different grades of plastic that determine how they are recycled. He encouraged everyone to recycle and save paper with more intelligent ways of printing. "Composting is very easy to do in houses or apartments and you can do a number of different things like using compact flourescent bulbs, using hand towels instead of paper napkins, using a shopping bag rather than 'paper or plastic' at the grocery stores and many more intelligent choices have a big impact at the personal level. When many people do that it has a very big impact at a mass scale".
