If composting is not convincing as an effective way to recycle, try investigating the 2000 American Green Dream Home. Take a virtual tour of the first dream home built completely from recycled materials. The jump to national recognition for recycling came when Texas received attention for its years of success promoting recycling efforts. America Recycles Day grew from that recognition. Soon Nearly 80,000 items will be on sale at the annual Friends of the Fort Worth Public Library Book Sale Nov. 10-12 in the poultry barn at Will Rogers Memorial Complex.
