Did you know...

... if your faucet is dripping at a rate of one drop per second, you can expect to waste 2,700 gallons of water per year?

...each time you recycle a three-foot stack of newspapers, it saves a tree?  If we all recycled our newspapers, we could save 250 million trees annually.  Are you looking for somewhere to recycle your newspapers?  Many schools have newspaper recycling containers in their parking lots.
