Q: Try calling for a meeting to discuss recycling or getting the first few minutes of another office get-together. You can also always just bring it up casually over coffee or lunch. The more your coworkers know about the advantages of recycling, the more likely they are to participate in a workplace recycling program! A few simple phrases for talking about it with your colleagues can include:  ”An aluminum recycling bin for soda cans in the break room can really help eliminate some of our waste.” ”Wouldn’t it make sense for us to have a paper recycling bin next to the printer?” “I really think we should focus on recycling more here.” Create a permanent resource such as a bulletin board for employees to reference whenever they wish. The bulletin board can have statistics about the office’s impact on waste or more broad statistics. Remember not to get too wordy or else people will be unlikely to read much. Keep the information current and replace it every few weeks with new materials so everyone stays educated and engaged. A few ideas for the bulletin board can include:  Your office’s amount of recycled goods so far Infographics about what happens to items after they’re recycled Recommended reading lists of articles or studies regarding recycling Tips for making recycling easier Try leaving a few pamphlets in the lobby or even installing an entire bookshelf. Hopefully, your coworkers will expand their recycling knowledge in their spare time around the office. Check out the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or Planet Aid for some good resources on brochures. If you’re planning on leaving books around, remember to choose accessible ones with quick statistics and facts. A few solid ideas include:  Recycle Everything: Why We Must, How We Can by Janet Unruh Shift Your Habit by Elizabeth Rogers Recycle: The Essential Guide by Lucy Siegle Try putting up a sheet with recycling statistics near the waste bins. You can include global statistics or facts specifically about the office’s impact on recycling efforts. Count the number of bags of garbage your office produces in an average week before starting. Then, once the recycling initiative has begun, start counting the number of trash bags compared to bags of recycled goods. Being able to quantify their efforts will help employees put their contributions into perspective. Let those who are truly invested help keep the program running, giving those who wish to participate an active role. Try putting them in charge of rotating recycling informational posters around the office or encouraging them to come up with fun contest ideas of their own. This will help take the load off your back and contribute to an office culture of recycling.
A: Spread the word to your coworkers about recycling. Make recycling information readily available with bulletin boards around the office. Place literature about recycling around the office. Put up fact sheets near waste receptacles. Keep track of the statistics to keep your coworkers motivated. Choose volunteers to keep the workplace recycling program running.

Q: Once stains set into a soft surface like flannel, they can be next to impossible to remove completely. In the event of spills, leaks and other accidents, blot the affected area with a damp cloth while it’s still wet. Afterwards, clean your bedding as usual, adding one quarter to one half a cup (60-120ml) of white vinegar to the washing machine as it fills.  Use a mixture of warm water, hydrogen peroxide and mild liquid detergent to deal with substances that are likely to leave stains, like coffee or red wine.  Be careful not to scrub the sheets too forcefully—over time, it’s possible to wear holes into the fabric. Though they may sound like a good thing, the chemicals in fabric softeners have a tendency to coat and stiffen flannel fibers. Over time, this can leave your sheets feeling waxy. It’s also a good idea to say no to dryer sheets for the same reason.  To keep older flannel sheets soft to the touch, try throwing a couple (clean) tennis balls into the dryer with them. The movement of the tennis balls will help loosen up clumped fibers. One of the main selling points of flannel is that it’s already soft, so there’s no need to use a lot of conditioners and other products to keep it that way. Rather than constantly washing and reusing the same set of sheets, invest in one or two additional sets and cycle them out between uses. Each set will last longer, and you’ll appreciate the fresh new look your bed gets every time you do laundry. Remember to keep lights, darks and colored sheets separated in the wash.
A:
Treat stains right away. Avoid using fabric softeners. Change out your sheets periodically.
