katilac Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I'm going to revive it with a new question. My mom's town, a few miles over, recently stopped all recycling. My town may be next. If recycling isn't an option, is it better to burn paper and cardboard or send to the landfill? The burning would be done at our camp, not in the suburbs.

But I have a woodstove and a petrol car, so I put particulates into the air every day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausmumof3 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 The thought of putting any food stuff down the drain seems mad to me. Isn’t that a recipe for blocked drains. everything here gets tipped out and eaten by either sheep, chickens or dog. Very little food goes in the actual garbage.
