Milwaukee Recycles


Yesterday, the Milwaukee Brewers failed to top the Philadelphia Phillies in game one of their quest for World Series glory. However, I still have hope we can best them I stopped at my house during my lunch hour and lying in a pile of post was a flyer from the city of Milwaukee promoting recycling. This is good news. Milwaukee really needs to get on the recycling bandwagon if we are going to be a greener city -
 it's great to see the city send out the message in order to reach people. It's good to be green.
