A trip to the local oil change business, here is Buggy Bath, and a question about the charge for reclaiming the oil gave a delightful surprise.
The owner said that the used oil removed from cars is processed and used to heat their building.
Three cheers for recycling and putting to good use. Do you know what happens to your used oil? Ask.

Are you an office supply junkie? An office supply hoarder? Do you only have what you actually need on a daily basis in that top drawer? Screen your office for green- here are a few ways to make it easy!
REDUCE- use only what you need. How many post- its are required for the job?
Use refillable pens and pencils! Doesn’t it make sense? Why throw out the entire pen just because it needs more ink?
Use recycled paper! There are notebooks, copier paper, you name it. Check out Staples online and put “recycled” in the search box – you’ll be amazed by what’s offered. By using recycled paper, 95% less air pollution is generated than what is generated for virgin paper.
