The thing that strikes us most about recycling is that though it is very satisfying, it is simple and so good for the environment; it has still not caught on, as it should.

Bottles for plants: We all have soft drinks at home and tend to buy those huge bottles of. Once the drink is finished, we think nothing of throwing the bottle away. You can actually cut of the tops and put them in reverse on top of the bottle and fill them with mud and use this to plant indoor plants. The bottom portion will hold any water that drips down and this looks really good.
