    Yes (plastics and cardboard only - they don't take glass)
    No
    No
    Not yet - I want one so badly...glad I didn't start one this year. It wouldn't have lived through this summer.

    recycle - yes
    compost - no
    rain barrel - used to but it bred mosquito
    garden - yes

    My neighbors have a compost out front and it drives me crazy! It's 100+ so it stinks and you have to really watch your pets in the yard because the next thing you know they have old rotting foods.

    Yes--mandatory, but would do it anyway
    No--but I really want to start!
    No--again--REALLY want one, my water bills are atrocious
    YES!!!--I actually grew heriloom tomatoes from seed for the very first time this year and they are beautiful (and delish!)

    No. The bums do it for me when they IMMEDIATELY go through my building's dumpster for cans/bottles when it's taken out on trash day. They can keep the CRV: they need it more than I do.
    No.
    No. I live in the land of very little rain.
    Herbs only. I'd love to do more, but since I live in a big city, and I have EXTREMELY limited porch space.

    Recycle? Cans and ink cartridges at work oh and clothes, I donate to friends with younger kids or thrift stores
    Compost? Trying (3 years now) but the man is making things difficult. Homemade compost that is too tall for me to stir.
    Have a Rain Barrel? I WISH! But it would so not useful here. Like 2 inches of rain this year so far.
    Have a Garden with... ya know... food? 3rd year in a row and unfortunately saddest one yet. Only lasted 2 months due to our lack of rain. Even with watering everyday could not keep it alive. Was so pretty too.
