Or at the very least, switch to using plastic sporks.Buttcrackdivine said:Those plastic spoons and forks that you throw out after one use are designed to biodegrade in 10,000 years. Yeah we are building up quite a bit of a mess with those if we don't recycle them.

I've seen a house built with styrofoam blocks. I forget what kind of adhesive held the blocks together, but there was concrete poured between the blocks and in the hollow parts in the middle of them. The house was then stuccoed over on the outside. the R-value of the walls was astronomical.Nixy said:I think they make insulation out of them
I am not making that up...for some reason I think I heard somewhere that recycled strofoam is used for insulation...Of course, I might be losing my mind
