Attempting to live a whole month without contributing any waste to a landfill site.
I’ve noticed people change their behaviour around me. First my housemate started recycling. Then someone put their cigarette butt in their pocket to avoid offending me. Yesterday, I was phoned up to ask “what kind of food can you eat at my house.” Is this how nice people treat vegetarians? I try to corrupt them with bacon butties.

I have never recycled before in my life. Apparently you can get prosecuted for this (please send me the proof if you can find it). Until a month ago I used to throw my paper in my waste bin instead of the recylcing bin 2 metres away. So now I'm going for the extreme - lets not make any landfill waste at all. I'm not enthused about being reasonable about this. It's all or nothing.

very interesting! i am the waste prevention officer in Hackney and we promoting this kind of thing. In the meantime you smoker friends can get stubbies to keep the cigarette butt to keep the smell sealed.
