I was a lobbyist earlier in my working career, but I didn't lie, cheat, bribe, or blackmail someone to get what I wanted. Was I the only honest lobbyist, or did I not know how to play the game?

cucumber plants growing in old growbags

Reusing last season’s tomato grow bags? No problem! Just remove old roots & flush out fertiliser salts with rainwater. Great crops to plant next? Cucumbers, melons, radishes, beans, lettuces, & herbs. But skip peppers & aubergines—they’re too closely related to tomatoes. #Recycling #GardeningTips

#recycling is struggling. The economy wastes almost 100 million tons textiles p/y, yet using raw materials is cheaper and has better scaling than feeding it back.

Eagle County already outpaces the state and nation in recycling rates. Sustainability experts are pushing to do even better Eagle County already outpaces the state and national averages for overall waste diversion from the landfill and recycling-specific rates. But sustainability experts are pushing the county to do even better. Part of Eagle County’s countywide climate action goals are plans to reduce the amount of waste that goes to the landfill. The climate action plan aims to reach a 40% overall diversion rate, 80% organics diversion rate and 100% construction and demolition waste diversion rate by 2030. A look into Eagle County’s recycling rates Walking Mountains Science Center helps the county create an annual waste diversion report, documenting all the waste that enters and leaves the county. In 2024, Eagle County’s overall diversion rate, which includes construction and demolition diversion and diversion of hard to recycle materials, was 23%. The county’s recycling-specific rate was 31%. The same year, Avon reached a 30% overall diversion rate while Vail hit a 28% overall diversion rate and 33% recycling rate. Eagle County’s rates are higher than the state average diversion rate (in 2024,15.7%). “But we could do better,” said Melissa Kirr, senior programs director of sustainability for Walking Mountains Science Center. Eagle County is doing better than the state and national averages (the...
