Practical Recycling

Great concept for the internet - reduce land fill by giving away the stuff you don't want. Simply join a freecycle group, and connect with others who might need what you are about to put into landfill.

Freecycle is an email list where like-minded folk let each other know about something that they are giving away. It is a global phenomenon with over 1 million members. There is only one constraint - everything you post must be free.

Faith in action; community which makes a difference to the planet; a simple practical way to make a difference. Call it what you will... it seems to be a major (couneter-cultural) step forward in this disposable world. There are four chapters in Melbourne/Geelong, and more in rural Victoria... a total of 15 in the state. It's a global phenomenon. If you want to check out a site in your country, click here.
