Endre,  the Dallas County makes it easy for us to properly dispose of items that are harmful to the environment.

Larry and Sheila, I agree.  I wish more counties would put plans like this in place.

Sylvia, I visited the Dallas Landfill.  I'm convinced that if everyone visited one time, they would be on board to recycle everything possible.  Landfills are miles of junk that will always be there in some form.

Rebecca, it's a big step in the process of taking care of our environment.

Lou,  safety is key.  I wonder how many people pour hadardous liguids down the drain that end up in our water filtration plants.

Alan, I definitely agree!

Debbie, it would be a great Realtor project to invite a hazardous waste company to collect  waste in a convenient location to draw awareness to the real estate company and the need to be responsible to prevent chemicals from ending up do not end up in our soil or water supply.
