Skip to content When we moved to Forest Park over two decades ago, my first wish was to install solar panels, but there were many roadblocks at the time. So we optimized energy consumption instead, from lightbulbs to smart meters and overall mindfulness on avoiding waste in as many forms as we could figure out, from composting (half of U.S. landfills are stuffed with food waste apparently) to insulation (we got recycled denim instead of fiberglass on our attic).
Spring never fails to bring up trash as a topic of conversation to Forest Park, as in “OMG there is so much trash in our streets.” And come next spring we forget. Here are some reminders, to see if we can move the conversation and not be stuck in the same spot every year. Yes, there is street trash. However there is a constant flow of street trash through the year. Street trash is more noticeable after the snow melts because it has accumulated over the winter.
