Make Stretchy Universe Slime! | NASA Space Place – NASA Science for Kids
Stir it together; it will mix nicely.

Note: You may also use white school glue, but your universe slime will be lightly colored and opaque.

Add food coloring to the glue and water mixture. We used 6 drops of blue and 3 drops of red to get a nice, dark purple color.

In the other bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of borax with 1 cup of lukewarm water.

Stir until the borax is dissolved. This takes a while, so you have to be patient. If you skip this step, your slime will not come together very well.

Stir, stir, stir, until you don't feel the crunch of the solid bits of borax on the bottom. The water will start to look a little cloudy.

Add the purple glue mixture to your borax water, stirring slowly as you pour it.

You'll see the slime start to form. Stir as much as you can. Use your hands to get in there and work it around.

Take your glob of slime out of the bowl and put it on your wax paper. It's okay if there is some water left behind.

It's time to add some glitter galaxies! Flatten out your slime and spread glitter over the top. You can use any color or combination of colors, but lighter ones will work best because they will stand out against the dark purple. 

Fold your slime in half to seal in the glitter. Then press it out and fold it over again. 

Keep pressing and folding and watch as the glitter spreads throughout your slime. 

Play with your handheld universe and watch it stretch and expand!

Storing your universe slime:
To keep your universe slime from drying out, store it in a sealed sandwich bag. Do not wrap it in foil or wax paper because it will stick to those materials.

Approaches to Composting | US EPA
Vermicomposting, or worm composting, is also an option for home composters. Home composting systems mostly handle food scraps (except for meat, bones, and dairy products) and yard trimmings. By composting at home, households reduce their trash going to the landfill or incinerator and use the compost they produce in their garden, yard, or house plants. To learn more, visit EPA’s Home Composting webpage.
Community Composting
Community composting takes place at the neighborhood or community level and may be located at schools, universities, community gardens, farms, parks, faith-based institutions, and other spaces in urban, rural, and suburban areas. The distinguishing feature of community composting is keeping the composting process and product (compost) as local as possible while engaging the community through participation and education. The compost generated from locally sourced materials is seen as a community asset and is used in the same community it is produced. The benefits of community composting include improved local soils, enhanced food security, local jobs, greener neighborhoods, and community engagement. Community composting supports a community’s social, economic, and environmental well-being. To learn more, visit EPA’s Community Composting webpage.
On-site Composting
On-site composting is dedicated to composting materials generated at a specific location. A business, school, or other institution may compost materials they generate such as food scraps from a cafeteria or yard trimmings from around the campus. Composting on-site cuts down on costs of hauling organic materials off-site for processing or disposal, helps meet sustainability goals, and produces a valuable soil amendment for use in gardens and landscaping.

Municipal Composting
Municipal composting describes local government programs, sometimes known as curbside collection, in which yard trimmings or food scraps are collected from homes and businesses or at drop-off sites.

Indoor Air Quality & Exposure

Back to All Topics

The quality of the air inside our homes, schools and workplaces matters, particularly since we spend most of our lives indoors. Sources of indoor air pollution include building materials, gas appliances, cleaning products, personal care products and furniture.CARB is actively involved in the development of green building standards and indoor air quality guidelines. CARB also regulates indoor air cleaners so that consumers can be assured of their safety. CARB also sponsors and conducts research into all aspects of indoor air quality, with a focus on determining levels of exposure to harmful indoor air pollutants, and seeking ways to prevent and reduce that exposure.

 Air CleanersAir cleaning devices, particularly high efficiency filtration devices, can do a lot to improve your indoor air quality. Find information on how to select a safe and effective air cleaner.Find Certified Air Cleaners

FAQs • Monterey Park, CA • CivicEngage
What process do I need to go through to put it up?

Public Works - Slurry Seal	

Show All Answers

1.
What is Slurry Seal?

Slurry Seal is a petroleum-based emulsion product, mixed with fine aggregate rock and fillers. It is blended on-site in a large truck, and then applied evenly across the entire surface of an asphalt street. A slurry seal is typically 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch thick. By reusing old tires and tennis balls as the filler and using special emulsion, new technology allows us to apply a slurry solution in the morning and then drive on it in the evening. 	

2.
What does it do?

Slurry Seal provides a new protective surface and smooth driving surface to an existing asphalt street. By sealing the street, the base of the road is protected from water damage and the surface is protected from weathering. This extends the service life of our roadways and cuts down on costly repairs and repaving projects caused by oxidized aged pavement surface that has lost its flexibility.

Household Hazardous Waste	

What is Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)? HHW is any household material that is toxic or corrosive, or can catch fire, react or explode under certain conditions. These items may pose a threat to human health and/or the environment if discarded improperly. Examples include bleaches, cleaning solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals and more.Madison County's HHW Program Overview:In an effort to keep these materials out of the landfill, the Madison County Dept. of Solid Waste funds a FREE household hazardous waste program for its residents (business waste not accepted). Madison County residents can bring their waste to Miller Environmental Group in Syracuse, NY. Please read the information on this page and then fill out the household hazardous waste registration form to schedule an appointment. Appointments are required. There is a limit of 1 visit per household per year.

 
 

 
 
 
 

How Do I Get Rid of HHW?STEP 1: Categorize the types of HHW you are looking to get rid of. You will need to know an estimated quantity for each type when you fill out our reservation form. Residents can bring up to 20 liquid gallons AND 30 solid pounds of accepted HHW for FREE. There is a charge for overages. Please review our accepted HHW items below.The amount is determined by the container or bag size, NOT the amount remaining in the container of bag.

They are garbage.STEP 2: Request an appointment. To set up an HHW appointment, please fill out the reservation form and enter your preferred date/time. Miller Environmental Group, Inc. is open Monday - Friday, 8 AM to 3 PM.
