Bathrooms don't last forever, it's understandable really. Just think how many different people use your bathroom. Plus if you have young children your bathroom has to cope with them too!

Loon Mountain has started a new way of doing things in regards to recycling and energy conservation that should not go unnoticed and will hopefully pave the way for other resorts, all over the world, to follow.
Other efforts toward recycling include changing their light bulbs over to compact fluorescent alternatives, which are said to use 75% less energy and last ten times longer than the average light bulb. Bathrooms now have motion sensors for the lights and fans, so energy is not being used when no one is in the room. New windows and doors have been put in to replace older models that allowed for heat to leak out and the cold northeastern wind to come in. Recycling to keep our planet healthy We've all heard the warnings; acid rain, global warming, landfills without any room, and on and on. We don't recycle because it's the "in" thing to do; we recycle because we don't have any other options if we plan to leave the planet for generations to come. Before you leave for a trip remember to turn down your thermostat and/or adjust the AC. Unplug your electronics from the wall to stop possible leaking wattage while it's turned off. Utilize some of the power strips for pulling items in and turn off the whole strip when you're leaving the house. As an individual you can't control factories pouring toxins into water ways or prevent oil leaks that endanger some species, but you can make an impact, none the less. How? First, by not adding to the madness and wasteful ways others are handling items and materials that can be recycled and secondly, and maybe more importantly, you can make an impact by being a leader in the crusade to save the planet by doing the right things. Make every step you take count for something. Do your part in the efforts to keep our planet healthy; reduce, reuse, recycle. The good news is this; there are easy ways to stay on track with recycling, and you don't have to look very far to find them.
