Watch this grossness.

Dig 1 hole in Alaskan beach.
Pour water in hole.
Now you’ve got yourself some oil.

Wow, that’s terrible.  And we let that happen.

Recyling aluminum foil is worthwhile

“The recycling process uses about 5 percent of the energy of the original processing.”  So why are we buying new aluminum foil and not recycling used aluminum foil?
