recyclingfacts
Want to recycle your cell phone or MP3 player? Here’s how to make it pay (ARA) - Better features, more speed, sexier style — upgrading your personal electronics just doesn’t have a downside. Or does it? What do you do with your old cell phone, laptop or PC monitor once you’ve chosen a newer, snazzier version? You know you can’t just throw these items in the trash since many contain potentially harmful chemicals and elements. And you may also fear that simply trashing your old PC or cell phone could put sensitive information - like your checking account number or contacts from your address book - at risk of falling into the wrong hands. Often, set-aside personal electronics wind up cluttering a drawer or closet because we simply don’t know what else to do with them. Recycling is a better option than trashing or hoarding, and Americans have embraced the concept in nearly every other aspect of their lives. However, if To Advertise, call 973-434-8888
you’re unsure how to safely, cost-effectively recycle your personal electronics, consider these tips: * From charities to recycling companies, it’s easy to find someone to take your used electronics. Before you hand over your old cell, laptop or even MP3 player, be sure to ask what the recipient will do with the item. “While it’s wise to remove your personal information yourself before you turn in your used cell phone, PC or laptop, a reputable recycler will also ensure all information and programs are removed from an item before they do anything else with it,” says Thomas Muhs, president and chief manager of Engaged Recycling, which operates the electronics recycling Web site MyBoneYard.com. The site has recycled more than 7,000 electronic items, including 4,300 cell phones, in the past year. For example, MyBoneYard.com wipes all stored memory from the items it receives. The site then prepares the items for resale to those who can’t afford to buy new, or dismantles the items to the base ma-
terials for proper recycling if the item is broken or obsolete. A tracking number allows you to follow your donation as the site processes and distributes it. * Cell phones aren’t the only
electronic items you can recycle. Virtually any personal electronic device - from your computer monitor or laptop to your MP3 player or old video game console - can be recycled. You can use MyBoneYard.com to look up the device you want to recycle and find out if there’s a use for it. If so, you may be eligible for a reward - in the form of a prepaid card or other compensation. In fact, the average compensation is about $24 per item.
www.NJMarketeer.com
* Children learn about recycling in school and in the home, and many kids are their household’s biggest recycling advocates. With more teens, tweens and younger children carrying cell phones, smart phones, iPods and other personal electronics, it’s never too early to start educating them about recycling these items. Look for online tools to help you communicate the message in a fun, kidfriendly way, like MyBoneYard’s award-winning mascot, “Scrapster.” The site’s mascot and marketing campaign recently won two awards of distinction in the 15th Annual Communicator Awards. Kids can connect with Scrapster, the recycling hound, who sports green fur to communicate his “green” message and a yellow bone to underscore the “golden” rewards of recycling, including a positive environmental impact, personal satisfaction and - in the case of items recycled through MyBoneYard.com possibly real dollar rewards.

laundryfacts
Clean, green and affordable laundry (ARA) - Laundry can take its toll — on your wallet and on the environment. In fact, the average American family does almost seven loads of laundry per week! All that water, detergent, and electricity or gas adds up to a lot of excess, but adding a few simple steps to your laundry routine can significantly reduce your environmental impact and save you money. “There is so much room in our homes to reduce waste and lessen the demand on our natural resources,” says David Bach, the eight-time national bestselling financial author and green lifestyle expert who wrote “Go Green, Live Rich: 50 Simple Ways to Save the Earth (and Get Rich Trying).” “Being green doesn’t require excessive effort or spending — you can really reduce energy consumption and waste by making modest adjustments to your daily household routines.” The following eco-friendly tips can help you reduce your waste and increase your savings while doing laundry: To Advertise, call 973-434-8888
* Pre-treat stains. How often have you pulled a pair of pants out of the washer, only to see that the mark did not come out, forcing you to throw them back in for a second load? Instead of wasting water and energy, tackle marks and stains before you wash and pre-soak your garments to allow more time for your detergent to work. * Reduce loads. Don’t run a load of laundry unless it’s full. Fewer loads mean less water and electricity consumed. An ENERGY STAR-rated machine also helps you to reduce water usage and save on energy costs. * Conserve on packaging. Keep an eye on how large the packaging is for your laundry products. Use concentrated detergents like Arm & Hammer Essentials Liquid Laundry Detergent, which is twice as concentrated, so less waste is going into landfills. It will also save you up to 50 percent more per load versus the leading brand and every purchase of an Arm & Hammer Essentials laundry or cleaning product helps to fund a www.NJMarketeer.com
$400,000 donation to the Keep America Beautiful Great American Cleanup. * Laundry detergents Use only detergents that contain biodegradable plant-based soaps. Also be sure to choose a detergent that does not contain dyes, phosphates, or bleaches. * Keep your laundry in-house. Taking your laundry to the dry cleaner costs money and can harm the environment. Many dry cleaners use industrial chemicals like tetrachloroethylene, which scientists have associated with liver or kidney damage. If you have clothing that must be dry-cleaned, look for a company that uses environmentally-sensible chemicals. * Smart drying. To help your dryer do its job and get your clothes dry as quickly as possible, make sure you clean the lint filter after each use. Also, sort your clothing into loads that take the same amount of time to dry. For example, towels take longer than synthetic materials. And of course, on those nice days, hang your clothes outside as often as possible. Courtesy of ARAcontent October 2009 Area 3

(ARA) - As Mother Nature adorns the trees in your yard with riotous reds, vibrant yellows and exotic oranges, you can easily get swept up in the romance of the season - until those leaves turn brown, drop from the branches and litter your lawn. Then you start to think of the hours of backbreaking raking work ahead of you. This autumn, why not try working with Mother Nature by mulching those leaves instead of raking, bagging and condemning them to a landfill?
“It doesn’t make sense to rake leaves and bag them, just to have them end up decomposing in a landfill,” says Dr. Phil Dwyer, senior scientist at The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company. “Leaf mulching recycles a natural resource and enriches the soil of your lawn for free.”
&
* Mow until you see about half an inch of grass through the mulched leaf layer. Any kind of rotary-action mower will do the job, and all kinds of leaves can be mulched. Throughout the season, you can chop up to 18 inches total of leaf clutter with several passes of the mower. Having a somewhat thick layer of mulched leaves is okay as long as you can still see the green grass blades poking through. As leaf bits settle into the ground, microbes and worms get to work recycling them. Once you’ve enriched your soil with leaf mulching, don’t forget that fall is the best time to feed and seed your lawn. A few simple steps can help ensure that your lawn will be strong next season and beyond: * After mulching, feed your lawn with Scotts Turf Builder WinterGuard fall lawn fertilizer to help build strong, deep roots for a better foundation and a more robust lawn next year. The nitrogen in the fertilizer will also help the mulched leaves decompose faster. Be sure to sweep excess fertilizer off hard surfaces like driveways and sidewalks.
In fact, turf benefits by receiving more nutrients when you mulch fall leaves back into the lawn instead of raking them, according to a study by Michigan State University turfgrass researcher Thom Nikolai and ScottsMiracle-Gro scientists. Recycling fallen leaves saves time and money, adds nutrients to the soil, speeds spring greening and reduces weeds.
* After feeding, spread seed where needed. To reseed your bare spots, dig up bare areas, mix in compost, sow your seeds and cover with more compost. If the weather is dry, keep the seeded soil moist until new grass begins to grow. Seeding autumn bare spots will thicken the lawn and make it more resistant to future bare spots.
Here’s how to recycle this fall’s crop of fallen leaves:

Refreshed and alert driving diffusion A shorter, thriftier trip is likely to be by car. The inevitable rush to make the most of the limited time away after a tiring work week can create fatigue, so don’t make it a dangerous driving situation. Enliven your senses with essential oil scents. Ditch the cardboard cutout car “freshener” that hangs from the rearview mirror. Not only distracting, these products are usually saturated with synthetic fragrance chemicals and probably aren’t the best thing to inhale while enclosed in your vehicle. Instead, rely on a sleek essential oil diffuser that plugs into your automobile’s phone charger power outlet. These devices feature small paper fiber pads to which you can apply your own custom blend of essential oils, allowing you to not only scent the air inside the car, but also to provide refreshing aromatherapy benefits to help keep you alert and focused on the road. A simpler, alternative way to diffuse is to apply several drops of oil to a tissue and tuck it carefully into one of the vents in the dash. Try these essential oils for the car: * Peppermint essential oil - refreshing, awakening, uplifting. * Eucalyptus essential oil - bracing, purifying, protecting. * Lemon essential oil - pleasant, deodorizing, cheering.
How clean is your hotel room? Overnight stays in less than posh hotel digs may be part of the money-saving travel trend. Even upscale hotels aren’t immune to dirt and germs, or worse, an apparent outbreak of bedbug infestations in the United States, recently publicized by the Environmental Protection Agency. Bedbugs aside, there are always nagging doubts about just how clean a hotel room actually is. Has the shower or tub been scrubbed or merely wiped down? Is the toilet sanitized? Has the bedspread ever really been thoroughly cleaned? Fortunately, there are ways to protect yourself after you check in, but before you settle into your temporary overnight home. www.NJMarketeer.com
* Air and Surface Sanitizing Spray: Feel good about travel with a bottle of homemade purifying aromatherapy solution that relies on pleasantly scented and highly effective essential oils, rather than harsh chemical disinfectants. The following spray will help you create a hygienic environment in your temporary hotel home. Apply it to tub, vanity and toilet surfaces. Ingredients: Empty 12 to16 ounce spray bottle 10 ounces water 2 ounces isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol or vodka 1/2 teaspoon tea tree essential oil (antimicrobial) 1/2 teaspoon lemon essential oil (cleansing) 1/2 teaspoon lavandin essential oil (protecting) 1/2 teaspoon sweet orange essential oil (freshening). Directions: Combine all ingredients in the spray bottle. Shake and apply to a washcloth, and wipe down the TV’s remote, the clock radio, the door handles and the faucet handles in the bathroom. * Purifying and Relaxing Linen Mist: Here are some great tips for making a strange bed feel more like home. Take along your own pillow and replace the ones provided. Create your own linen mist and use it on your own bed at home, then travel with the same blend, taking a little bit of home with you. When you arrive at your destination, turn down the covers, exchange the pillows and apply your signature scent to the bed. Ingredients: Empty 4 to 8 ounce spray bottle 4 to 8 ounces water 13 drops lavender essential oil (relaxing, calming) 5 drops lavandin or spike lavender essential oil (purifying, protecting) Directions: Combine the water and oil in the bottle. Shake the contents thoroughly just before application. Remember to look for pure and natural essential oil brands like Aura Cacia that don‘t include synthetic petrochemical fragrances.

Fall into winter and start the bird-feeding frenzy (ARA) - Fall is the traditional beginning of the classic start for the yearlong season of bird feeding. More people feed birds than watch football, baseball or any other sport, or participate in any other outdoor activity. That’s right. Bird feeding is in. More than 65 million Americans are doing it, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Bird feeding is “in” and it’s easy to see why. Attracting birds to your backyard is a relatively low-cost way to relax, enjoy nature and beautify your winter surroundings. And it can be done by people of virtually all ages and levels of physical ability. The majority of North American birds suffer from loss of habitat. Investment in avian habitat will return valuable dividends for birds and tons of backyard enjoyment for us. Now, as a new season is just beginning, it’s a perfect time to get started.
Tiny birds must eat a third to three quarters of their weight each day. Easy meals at feeders can mean the difference between life and death. To attract the widest variety of birds, landscape your property with plants that offer birds cover and natural foods and always provide a source of water.
Need for feeders When the ground is covered with snow and ice, it’s hard to resist just tossing seed out the door. But it’s healthier for the birds to get their “hand-outs” at a feeding station, off the ground. Food that sits on the ground for even a short time is exposed to potential contamination by dampness, mold, bacteria, animal droppings, lawn fertilizers and pesticides.

birdfeedingfacts Sometimes it can seem like forever before birds notice a new feeder. Be patient and they will eventually come. And remember, if you fill your feeder only after it’s been empty for awhile, the birds will look for food elsewhere. They’ll return as long as you continue to fill it. There are a multitude of feeders out there to choose from. Check out Web sites like www.BirdWatcherSupply.com for some good choices.
Winter feed and seed: food for fat
blueberry-flavored cranberries, preferred nuts, nutritious insect suet kibbles, and whole kernel sunflower meats. It appeals to both fruit and insect-loving songbirds. Birds, like humans, do have food preferences. Feed them what they like and they’ll keep coming back for more. For more information on Cole’s Feed visit www.coleswildbird.com. Courtesy of ARAcontent
Winter weather is hard on birds. Their calorie requirements increase, food becomes hard to find, snow covers up seeds, and ice storms seal away the tree buds and wild fruits. Tiny birds must eat a third to three quarters of their weight each day. When the temperature dips below zero, easy meals at a feeder can mean the difference between life and death. It’s important to stock your feeder with high-quality foods that will provide birds with the most fat, nutrients and energy. Look for a feed like Cole’s that is nutritious, preserves freshness, and gives you the most feed for your dollar. Cole’s Oil Sunflower is over 99 percent pure and is cleaned more than four times to ensure there are more seeds and fewer sticks in each bag. The feed is also nitrogen-purge packaged, just like potato chips, to ensure freshness and insect-free feed. Birds love suet. It’s the solid fat rendered from beef, venison, or vegetables that provides concentrated energy to help birds make it through freezing winter days and nights.
Birds, like humans, do have food preferences. Feed them what they like and they’ll keep coming back for more.
Cole’s Wild Bird Products offers a good selection of suet cakes formulated to attract the largest variety and number of wild birds as well as specific bird species. They also have a new Hot Meats suet cake. This product is infused with habanero chili pepper - a patented technology researched and approved by scientists from Cornell to keep squirrels away. Birds love it and squirrels hate it, finally solving the age-old problem of squirrels at your feeder. To cater to seed-loving birds, try Cole’s Nutberry Suet Blend. It’s a unique seed blend mix of premium human-grade cherries, apples and www.NJMarketeer.com
