Here is my request that you do a good deed for someone else as well as a good deed for the environment. This will not cost you any money, and all it takes is a bit of time and effort: if you have old items that you need to get rid of, such as items you have replaced through updating or renovating (for example, computers or televisions), you may believe that nobody wants this old crap, and therefore your instinct is to just throw it out in the garbage or put it on the curb for garbage collection, but by doing so, your item ends up in a landfill, where it is crushed and the toxic elements from said item enter the ground, contaminating it. This is of course bad for the environment. My argument: why not give it away? You don't have to go through great lengths to do so; you don't have to drive the item or bring the item anywhere, and you don't have to pay to get rid of the item (in municipalities where you have to pay to get rid of items, this can be very beneficial). Kijiji and CraigsList have sections where you can give away items for free. Even if you go as far as taking pictures of your items, this shouldn't take more than 10 minutes of your time to put up an ad where you offer this item for free. Essentially, you tell people to contact you, and if they want to come pick it up, then they can have the item. If the items get recycled, gets reused, I say why not! It's a good deed that does good for the environment and that can do good for someone else: in the end you might feel a bit better knowing that you helped someone else out all while not contributing to our mass landfill garbage crisis.
