recycling is not pointless and expensive. it is our way of paying back mother earth for everything she has given to us. we are trying to make a difference in the world, and recycling is the best way to go. it might be expensive to some, but for others, it is just a challenge. there are simple, costless things you can do, and when you do them, you are recycling! how can such a helpful thing be pointless and expensive?!

Hey, you definitely get the point of recycling. Its all about cradle to cradle. The less we take out of the earth overall, the better.
