Did you know...
...Your old refrigerators are NOT being destroyed or recycled. They are being used in places like Haiti as full sized ice chests! The best recycling of a consumer good is to put it back into use - ie, reuse! They are all over the place. They are laid down on their back and used just like a deep freezer would be used - except they aren't plugged in to anything. The Haitian vendor puts a couple large blocks of ice in there with beers and waters and sodas and then hangs out their sign. In fact, I'm going to go outside the base right now and grab me a nice cold Coca-Cola. No Root-Beer here, dammit.
