I just had the following conversation with Kyra as we were on our way to school:
"Daddy, yesterday in school we learned we need to save our planet by getting trashed."
Once again I'm questioning our decision to send our girls to public school. "What do you mean by 'getting trashed'?" I laughed.
"We need to pick up our trash and we need to have three different containers: one for paper, one for cans, and one for bottles," she explained.
"Very good, Sweetie, but that's called RECYCLING, not GETTING TRASHED."
Kyra might be on to something though. Getting trashed to save our planet might entice many more people to get with the program.
