7th Generation Fun Recycle Facts

Hey did you know if every household in the U.S. replaced one 12 pack of  300 virgin fiber bathroom tissue with our 100% recycled bathroom tissue,we could save: 


**2,000,000 trees 
**720 million gallons of water a years supply for over 5,700 family's of four
5.1 cubic feet of landfill space, equal to over 7,500 full garbage trucks.


If every household would switch to 7th Generation liquid laundry soap 320,000 barrels of oil, to cool and heat 18,400 homes for a year, or  the equivalent of removing 23,000 cars from the road for one year!  
   


If ever household would replace just one 120 count roll of virgin paper towel to 7th Generation with there 100% recycled (90% PCR) product we could save:


Over 1,000,000 trees 
over 360 million gallons of water, a year's supply for over 2,800 families of four, and
2.6 million cubic feet of landfill space, equal to over 3,900 full garbage trucks.


                                              


These are some of the things they do to help the earth stay green...  This is why my family only uses 7th Generation products.  
 
                                                




What do you think of Seventh Generation products? 

I'm changing my blog to talk bout something that is important to me and my family: recycling.

My mom has always been a advocate of recycling. She enjoys/embraces people calling her a tree hugger and making remarks to her bout being one. Heck she even calls herself one.

 At my house if you throw something away that can be recycled, you are in for a lecture bout my kid's, kid's kids. Yes, my great-grand kids and so on. That the earth needs to be cared for, that it is a living thing, that it be around if we continue on the same path as we are. My mom always brings home things that can be recycled when she is gone away.

My first time going to Micheal's

   Dewy's friend Jameson and his mom took us out to eat at Golden Corral then took us to Micheal's Dewy Got a cool Helicopter you put together. Annuh(Anna) got a Little foam dresser that you put together with butterflies on it, I got a Pottery set. It was so fun making the pottery i could do forever...   It is a long process you have to make it then you have to let it dry for a day or two then you sand it then you need to wipe it down with a dry cloth and then you get to paint it. it is a long process but it is so fun.Dewy and Annuh keep telling me that it takes to long and i should have gotten something else. I like to think it as They got one day of fun and I got more days of fun!!   P.S. Do not put it on your face it itches but it makes your face smooth and soft... 

My Bike Ride With My Brothers

I had an exciting fun weekend when my brothers and sisters came to visit. It was the first time we were all together since I was the ripe young age of 5. We had fun taking pictures, hanging out and picking on each other.

Sunday Morning, my brother Ricky wanted to go for a bike ride so Dewy, Bryon and myself went for a bike ride with him. Though before we could leave we had to pump air in the tires. We hoped the air would stay in the tires...No one wanted to walk their bike back.

First we rode by the boats then we rode to the bridge on Russel Creek Road and that's where a very small boat was sunk a long time ago. Depending on the depth of the water is how much you can see of the boat. Funny my mom didn't even know that it was there. Guess she needs to go a little slower in life so she can enjoy the cool things.

My brother Dewy never ever likes to go on long bike rides so we had to take him back home and drop him off. The rest of us kept on stopping and looking at boats and looking at houses saying "Boy American Pickers should come here."  Then we went down another subdivision, Then they took be me into the woods three times(trust me not as much fun as you would think it would be). You never ever know where those two boys will take you. Tho, I  know I'm safe with them according to my mother but one has to wonder...heheheheteeheee

We had a race back to the house. It was fun! The results of the race: First place was  Ricky (not fair since he has won a bike in a bike race), Second place was Me (Jem) I was amazed, and last but not least Third place was Bryon........

We had a good time can't wait to have all my brothers and sisters together again! Love having a big loving family.
