George,
We recycle everything, always use paper bags at the grocery, then reuse those as our trash bags, and I only flush the toilet every 3 days
. "Water at night" policies are strict down in Houston, especially in the summer, so that's no big deal. I think the biggest thing I could work on is driving a more planet-friendly car!
You can ****ing forget it about the peas, though! The nerve!

There's this new "super kitty litter" still in development stages in Europe that they've been using for oil spills for a few years now. It's some faux-peat moss that absorbs the "oil" and has a by-product of pure water! I watched a demo where they poured motor oil through a strainer of the kitty litter stuff, and pure water dripped through to the bottom. The demo guy even drank it!
Anyway, patents pending and it's still high-dollar stuff, hence it's only used for major oil spills.
Too bad I forget the name, but do you know what I'm talking about?
