Chemical Exposure — Things You May Not Know

Content brought to you by Full Circle Recycling 


I came across this video and as much as I am "into" the "Green Movement" a lot of the information can be dry and scientific. It is about our chemical exposure and how all of the things we thought to be are not necessarily true. Every day we all make choices about things that we are going to expose ourselves to...but do we realize that it is not just ourselves that are being exposed. Would we intentionally expose our greatest treasures to some of the scariest situations. I don't think so. The following video is entertaining, informative and will take you to places you may not have ever imagined going.

On a side note, it's been an amazing ride, we have seen scrap prices like never before; aluminum cans as high as eighty cents a pound and copper over three dollars. Friday that all came to a screeching halt, Thursday through the course of the day I received 3 phone calls with price reductions and Friday started with more of the same the first 2 calls were price cuts and the third was a call saying orders were being canceled and no one was buying scrap. Our prices have bottomed out and now we have to recycle because it is right and necessary unfortunately for the time being there is not the money to be had that we have all become accustomed to. Hopefully things will gain more strength and get back to where it is balanced at the very least, this economy is rough and it has even trickled into the scrap market. It is one continuous circle and like with the economy if we don't change our behaviors in how we care for the Earth we will be looking at more devastation. I hope this inspires you to be strong and move in the direction of changing our world making it a better place for us all!
