cashing in on ‘being green’
I haven’t taken clothes to the dry cleaners in forever. seriously, forever. I saw this place on Henderson close to my house called ‘Eco Cleaners’ and thought that sounds cool. I didn’t know how wrong I was. Granted, as far as just being a dry cleaners goes, they didn’t necessarily fail. However on the topics of not wasting paper, and being even remotely reasonable, failure is probably the first of a laundry list of words I would use. I think I had maybe 12 shirts laundered, and one pair of pants. Grand total was like $60. Then I get home and am getting the plastic wrap off of them to find out they stuffed paper down all the sleeves of my shirts. I realize what they’re going for, keeping the sleeves from sticking together and keeping them unwrinkled. But generating this much waste, recyclable or not isn’t exactly green.
this is what green trash looks like
I used to hate colors like pink and red, I think I’m beginning to hate green.
