Steps to Action 1. DON ' T LITTER. Teach your family not to litter- from the car, sidewalk, campsite, at work, school or home. It costs 30( of your tax money to pickup each roadside beer can (This does not include disposing of it), and the average mile of highway has 590 such beer cans- and 770 paper cubs, 730 cigarette packs and 360 bottles. Motorists drop 15,000 pieces per mile per year in America. 2. DON ' T USE NON-DEGRADABLE PACKAGING. You, the consumer, have unlimited power to change the packaging industry. Do not buy or use any form of immortal plastics which are used once, then discarded. The immortal plastics include plastic bags and containers, styrofoam packaging and plastic beer can loops. 3. BUY ONLY DEPOSIT BOTTLES. Most of today ' s bottles are junked after one usage. As a con- sumer, buy only depost bottles and help to eliminate no-deposit bottles. 4. RE-CYCLE AS MANY ITEMS AS YOU CAN. Ttus applies not only to newspapers, but to a multi- tude of items. Various companies buy old no-deposit bottles or beer cans for l 2 } each. Other organizations have paper drives. If your clothes, toys, or furniture are old but usuable, don ' t junk them, but contribute them to some charitable group which can continue using the items. 5. .PICKUP LITTER. Pick up litter around your home, your yard, your office, your school, and your campsite. Pick up litter wherever you see it. Every little bit helps! 6. TEACH THE CLEANLINESS HABIT to your children from infancy upward. If children have the habit of picking up after themselves, they will not increase the per capita trash that experts are predicting by 1980. 7. STOP ALL BILLS which would cause unnatural disasters such as SST, and Alaskan Oil Pipeline bills. Write your congressman. Support ecology clubs which are fighting against such bills. 8. STOP WAR. War is a major polluter of any country. Defoliant spraying, dropping of napalm bombs, and abandoning of wrecked equipment causes the greatest pollution problems. 74
