Pools, lakes, & beaches-oh my!

While you unwind at the pool, lake, and beach this summer, don't forget that you can still recycle your aluminum, glass, and paper products.  I know it can be inconvenient to do so, but it is a great way to go green and help keep our earth clean.  All you have to do is bring a smaller bag for your recyclables and keep it separate from the trash you will be throwing away.  I do this when I go to the pool, and it is quite easy.  Also, I know that it is tempting to pack food and snacks in plastic bags, but why not use reusable containers instead?  It saves money and our beautiful planet at the same time.  Don't forget the sunscreen, and you should be all set!
