My husband and I are always waiting a long while to buy new phones, televisions, computers, and other electronics because we feel it is too soon to discard the other ones. I understand we have an intensely fast technical market, but it does seem silly to constantly change. Perhaps more and more companies will offer trade-ins.

I use them in other stores too. I also have a cloth bag that fits very easily in my purse that I whip out at Staples or Target. I think the clerks are very surprised by how much will fit in that bag. I wrote how to make that cloth bag (I got mine from daughter in China) at this blog entry http://birdsbloomsbooksetc.blogspot.com/2010/12/chinese-peasant-bags.html<br />The newest thing is to take reusable vegetable bags to the store. My daughter gave me a set to use. Much better than plastic bags. She has them on her etsy greens and jeans.<br />Sorry to be so long winded. I'm really a fan of reusable.

I carry a foldable reusable bag in my handbag just in case I forgot to take them out of the car when buying groceries. I hope the big corporations produce things that last for many years and not disposables. Eg a computer laptops and is expected to last 2 years and handphones even shorter life but I extend it to 5 years or more until there is no more spare parts or software that support my dinosaur.Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-721055461531407267.post-54909361681584220892011-04-19T18:50:14.816-04:002011-04-19T18:50:14.816-04:00Many great ideas in this post.

Too often I think books and magazine articles tend to shame and almost bully their readers, implying that if they're not doing it all, they're not doing enough. I think it's unfortunate, there's no room for eco-elitism, we should all be lauded for all we do, large or small, to improve the environment. Love your tips at the end. I think I need to sew a piece of elastic to my shopping bags, with the other end attached to my car seat. I have the devils own time remembering to put them back in my car! Maybe I need two sets so I can rotate them? ;)Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-721055461531407267.post-17146292672909410572011-04-18T21:00:20.424-04:002011-04-18T21:00:20.424-04:00I really love that squirrel shot.
