Chevy Chase Section 3

'Cause it's really scary if you don't 🎃👻🇺🇸

A useful and interesting article about recycling, especially in the DC area.

Note that "Montgomery County never switched to single stream, asking residents to put paper and cardboard in one bin, and glass, plastic and metal in another. Under this system, broken glass doesn’t contaminate the valuable paper and cardboard, and it’s less likely to break and easier to sort by color. Eileen Kao, with Montgomery County, says the county is able to sell clear glass for as much $30 a ton, and green and amber glass for $17 a ton."

Montgomery County has an alphabetical list of items, as well as a search function on how to recycle just about anything.

Is Recycling Worth It? Why Many Things You Toss End Up In A Landfill. Recycling is a part of daily life, but not everything you put in the bin gets recycled. Most glass, in fact, ends up in landfills.

How you can help TSA/FAA unpaid employees who are still working for us:

If you're flying from Dulles International Airport they have set up a Food Pantry to assist those airport employees affected by the shutdown. They are collecting non-perishable items at their information counters (Travelers Aid) located at bag claims #6 and #10.

They also understand there is a need for Gas Cards and are accepting them through at the same location. The Travelers Aid team is assisting in these efforts. Note that I believe there is a $20 limit on the gas cards - the max federal employees can accept.

If you're flying from another airport, check with them to see if they are also accepting donations.

it's the least we can do if we still want to fly during the shutdown...
