AQ- the spray cans were an issue due to to choloroflourocarbons, CFCs, which have been taken out for the most part.
anyways..aside from just recycling your cans and cardboard, please note that proper disposal of electronics and electrical rpoducts is crucial as is that of medicine, especially prescription medicine. tossed in trash the release compunds that then get into water and and vegetation etc.
same can be said of your dvd and cds, they have dangerous compounds in them that start impacting the environment.
read up, and do your bit to reduce how much environmental impact you have on the world around you. (a general you)
its really small things. It wasnot until I started recycling regularly that i realized how much is the stuff that was otherwise just going to landfills.
and folks, please read the fine print, many ppl are going for those low eergy bumbs, which is s good thing, but the issue withthem is mercury so u cant just toss em..not that you should have tossed regular bulbs anyways, but these can be very dangerous.
