Ken Wardroper hasn91裸聊视频檛 taken out his trash since December of 2015.
The 75-year-old Oaklands resident is so adept at recycling, he finds a piece of foam buried in the half empty trash bin that91裸聊视频檚 been sitting under his sink for nearly three years.
91裸聊视频淪ee, even this piece of foam shouldn91裸聊视频檛 go in there,91裸聊视频� he says as he rescues it. 91裸聊视频淚 take these down to the bottle depot with the plastic bags 91裸聊视频� and the bottles I collect.91裸聊视频�
While Wardroper says it91裸聊视频檚 easy to be conscious about the packaging you buy and how to recycle most of the packaging that comes into your home, don91裸聊视频檛 look to him as an environmental model.
To understand why Wardroper is so prudent in his recycling is more a matter of understanding what makes him tick. In one series of sentences he explains his environmental consciousness is steeped in his work ethic. And to be transparent, his black Victoria trash bin does go out to the curb once in a while, but that91裸聊视频檚 only when there91裸聊视频檚 a couple of extra bags of garbage from his daughter91裸聊视频檚 nearby daycare.
91裸聊视频淚 don91裸聊视频檛 care what other people do. I don91裸聊视频檛 want to get into any controversy. It91裸聊视频檚 not for me. I91裸聊视频檓 just blessed. I don91裸聊视频檛 know how I became so blessed, with a home for me, a home for my daughter and granddaughters down the block. But you have to work, you have to have a hard work ethic.91裸聊视频�
Wardroper also collects bottles from blue bins on recycling days. He puts all the money he earns from bottle collections towards his grandchildren91裸聊视频� educations.
91裸聊视频淚 was out last night, I got $45 in bottles, and this morning I collected another $5 on the way back from walking my granddaughter to school. The account is in the thousands now.
91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檒l take my neighbours compost to the [public works] yard, I weed the streets in the neighbourhood, I take all our compost to the dump. I work hard.91裸聊视频�
