Ours is Types 1,2 and 3 as printed on the bottom in the little recycling

triangle...


Ours is 1, 2 4 ...

I saw a Portuguese public information film (they have 5 mins on "saving
the planet" on the morning TV news show) showing chimps sorting rubbish
into recycling bins, with the message "if these chimps can learn to do
it in 3 mins, why can't *you* do it?" ...

... and I started thinking of the UK equivalent "If you're in Leeds,
this goes in the Green bin, in Birmingham it goes in the brown bin, in
Newcastle it goes in the blue bin, and in Middlesbrough it goes in the
pink box ..."





In this house there is only one thing that goes in the pink box.
