OnlineAthens: Trash becomes treasure at Freecycle
Don Nelson reports that Freecycle is also flourishing in a town by the name of Athens, U.S.
“I have a little bit of the ‘green,’ hippie chick in me, and this makes me feel a lot better,” said the 26-year-old Bishop, who lives in Winder and has been involved with Freecycle for about a year and a half. “If you think long term about the planet and where we’re headed, this fulfills a need without everything going to landfills, because we’re not always going to have room for landfills.”
