Comments on: Week 36 Results: .6 oz of plastic waste. The day has finally come! http://myplasticfreelife.com/2008/02/week-6-results-6-oz-of-plastic-waste/ Think we can't live without plastic? Think again. In 2007 I committed to stop buying any new plastic & I've almost succeeded! Won't you join me? Let's see what plastic-free looks like in 2012... for the health of our bodies, our oceans, our planet. ~Beth Terry Fri, 17 May 2013 22:46:06 +0000 hourly 1 By: Anonymous http://myplasticfreelife.com/2008/02/week-6-results-6-oz-of-plastic-waste/comment-page-1/#comment-1585 Anonymous Sun, 02 Mar 2008 19:12:00 +0000 http://fakeplasticfish.com/2008/02/week-36-results-6-oz-of-plastic-waste-the-day-has-finally-come/#comment-1585 I can’t believe you tree huggers actually exist! I was gobsmacked at your stupid attempts to save plastic! Haw haw!

I am going to be checking this blog every week, and for each time you save plastic, I’m going to go down the supermarket and take 10 extra plastic bags and dump them in the bin!

Bwhaaaaaaaaaa!

I’m not sure what fragrances cats do not like, but something that makes them turn their noses away (sniffing and meowing pe-yew) might help, too. Maybe rosemary or garlic? If you need rosemary, I have lots!

We have built a similiar structure, but wehn metioning to my sister-in-law who is a vet tech she made an observation, that I wanted to share with all your readers! While cats are curious, and they do like to be mischievious and sometimes chew, they usually will not continually go after cords unless there is sodium missing from their diet – I know sounds strange, but apperantly most cords are covered by a plastic coating that contains sodium, we combatted the chewing by adding a sprinkle of an additive from our vet to the cat’s food and – no more chewing. so great job on the ingenuity, but please check on the sodium content of their food! KEEP BUYING GREEN & RECYLCING!

Congrats on getting your plastic down to such an insanely low level!

Packing tape is a pain, isn’t it? It’s one of those few rare things I haven’t been able to find an alternate use for no matter how hard I try..

It’s always very satisfying to see a problem and come up with a solution using things immediately at hand. who cares how it looks? Cats are smart, though, and they are likely making plans even as we speak. I’ll bet they had a private laugh over the Jalapeno stuff (cats don’t like to openly laugh)

The firefighter in me feels compelled to suggest that you put several air holes in your charger box.

Don’t want heat build up to ignite that cardboard.
