Loren Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 I saw a friend of mine today who just bought a condo in Honolulu. He has a very active mind and has to be working on something all the time. He told me the auto parts stores don’t collect waste fluids there. The trash service supplies you with a box. The box has a plastic bag inside with absorbent shredded paper inside that. You pour your oil and or anti-freeze in the box seal it and put it you trash can. The trash is collected but in stead of a land fill it goes to an incinerator which makes steam to make electricity. Your waste fluids are considered fuel and not toxic waste because of the way they are handled and disposed of. I am not a climate change worrier but I do worry about garbage. I seriously doubt humans can influence the weather (good or bad) however the trash we generate is a clear and present danger because there is so much of it. I was really pleased to hear the islands have a system that works! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
