I volunteered today at the ReDiscover Center. This is a really great place that uses recycled materials for educational and creative purposes. Through the use of waste materials, environmental sustainability and health is one step closer to becoming a reality. My time was spent sorting through waste materials, and selecting those which will ultimately be used to create art, for environmental education, and for tinkering programs. It never ceases to amaze me how much waste there is, and how much of it ends up in our environment. We wore gloves, and were careful to protect ourselves while sorting. Unfortunately, when this waste ends up in our environment, a lot of people are not so well prepared and suffer health consequences as a result.
