WHY RECYCLE???
Did you know that Oregonians produce more
than 5000 tons o f garbage every day? That is enough
to cover one acre o f land 8 feet deep. 30% o f the
weight and 50% o f the volume in Oregon land fills is
derived from product packaging which includes
paper, cardboard, plastic, and misc. "other things"
Paper products alone generate 29.6% o f the total
volume in land fills. If this isn't enough to inspire
you to reuse products, reduce your consumption . and
recycle what you can not reuse, then here are a few
facts to mull over.....
Making aluminum from recycled aluminum uses
90% less energy than making it from scratch. .. The
energy saved from one recycled aluminum can will
operate a TV for 3 hours.
Recycled glass lowers the melting temperature for
making new glass therefore saving 32% o f the
energy....The energy saved from 1 glass bottle will
light a 100 watt bulb for 4 hours.
Tin cans are made from tin-plated steel. These
metals are mined from ore deposits or dredged from
river gravel. Most mining and dredging sites are
located in tropical forests. This has an impact on fish
and aquatic species by disrupting their habitats in
riverbeds and causing erosion. It is estimated that
virgin tin supplies will be depleted in 25 years at the
current consumption rates.....70-80% o f tin is saved
when you recycle it.
Each ton o f paper made from recycled paper
instead o f trees saves approx. 17 trees, 4,100
kilowatt hours o f energy (which is enough to operate
an average US household for 4 months), 7,000
gallons o f water (enough drinking water for 30
people per year), 60 pounds o f pollutants and 3 cubic
yards o f landfill space.
A running faucet uses 3-5 gallons o f water per
minute. It takes 30 gallons o f water to wash dishes.
150 to wash a car, 5 to brush your teeth and 30 to
shave your face.
To be composted it will take the following time,
a traffic ticket: 2-4 weeks, tin can : 100 years, wool
sock: 1 year, cotton T-shirt: 5-9 months, rope: 3-14
months, soda can: 200-500 years and a 6 pack
plastic ring: 450 years.

POST OFFICE UPDATE:
Our always vigilant postal workers report
approximately a 50% reduction in the accumulated
lobby trash after the new recycling depot was
installed!! For the most part participants are using
the sy stem correctly and often. Remember that those
little index size cards we receive from Safeway and
other advertisers can not be recycled with the
newsprint. Please place them in the bin marked
"detached labels". If they are in with the newsprint
they must be hand sorted, which is time consuming.
Please only recycle materials you receive in the
mail at the Post Office Depot. Household recyclable«
can be placed outside with the curbside pickup. If
you do not know when it is you may call City Hall at
436-1581 for info, or bring it down to the recycling
depot next to the waste water treatment plant. The
recycling depot is open daily from 8AM-5PM and
Recycle Saturdays are the first and third Saturdays of
the month from 9AM to 1PM. Yard Waste may be
dropped off every Saturday between 10 & 12PM and
4 to 4:45PM. Commercial cardboard drop-off times
are even Tuesday and Thursday from 8 to 11 AM.
Check out the new bulletin board over the depot
in the P.O. for the latest recycling & conservation
gossip.
