Eco Tip: Medication

Don't dump your medication in the trash or in the toilet! Just like batteries the chemicals (although very different chemicals) in medication can seep into the ground water supply and do harm to the elderly, children, and even normal health adults. Think of it this way, if you were a woman in your 30s would you want to drink water that had 3 parts per million viagra? I didn't think so. Thankfully most cities have medication recycling programs that allow you to get rid of the stuff and if your city doesn't just save it until your next trip to the doctor and bring the unused pills back. That way you won't have people in your community getting weird side-effects from your dumped pills.
