Paul asks…

An outside job??????

So i want a job an outside job. Like construction, or working at a recycling plant. Stuff like that. That’s the only two i can think of. Something i don’t need that much experience. And doesn’t require a high school diploma. A good sized list of things like that would be helpful.

The Expert answers:

First, get a GED.
Mowing lawns, landscaping, gardening, painting houses those are the only ones I can think of without training.

George asks…

will you drink recycled water?why?

i think that if it comes to it we don’t have a choice and i will go with it

The Expert answers:

This is what really pisses me off…

They wait until last minute and act.

1. Recycled water should of been introduced along before (for farmers and irrigators only)
2. Let the murray darling basin alone just for personal and domestic use and drinking etc. NOT INDUSTRIAL which woulda gave us few more hundreds years worth of good water..
3. Desanitation plants should of been made (to assist murray basin) instead of spending money on Army Defense research weapon systems and war ships, Wheres that (AU 6000 BILLION DOLLARS ) ? Etc…

Lets say the howard government did a very good job at making money off poorer countries and also did a very good job spending it on unnessessary stuff….

Anywayz I do not want to drink water thats has been treated even if they god rid of urine, shit, dead animals, humans, other stuff that should be left decomprosed…

Just the thought of it make me sick…..
Yes we did had a choice but now its too late when its dried up.. They obviously did not WANT TO SPEND MONEY FOR THE FUTURE until its too late… Stupids..

Jenny asks…

What is the environmental impact of recycling water?

Obviously, water needs to be processed to become re-drinkable but what does this mean for the environment… a carbon footprint measurement would be great

The Expert answers:

Water is a renewable resource the earth recycles it with no help needed from you.

Forget about carbon footprints carbon dioxide has never been proven to cause any problems.

But we have something in the country that does this just fine with no power its called a septic tank. It uses no power and sends the treated water back into the ground or into a pond where the earth recycles it.

Its several 100 years old and still does the job.

Linda asks…

Is recycling fun and is it really saving the earth!!!!???

saving energy is because energy is in light and in gas~~~please answer if u know any good ways on how to recycle. 🙂

The Expert answers:

Recycling is how everyone is gaining awareness but remember there are several areas to saving the planet
Reduce – minimise the amount of waste you produce – shop sensibly! This can also involve going to markets, second hand stalls and charity shops to actually find quirky, alt clothing. And then modify for your needs – apparently fun!

Reuse – make sure that you have used an item to the end of its life – this can mean collecting and decorating random objects to give them new uses

Recycle – afraid this bit is slighty less fun – making sure that waste products are in the correct stream can be made more fun by
– putting basketball hoops over the bins
– creating special locations for areas (smarten up the bin area, the compost area, etc
– requesting through your local authority a visit to a recycling centre or visit from recycling officer.

Just a few suggestions but generally the fun part is knowing a lil mission has been a job done!

Thomas asks…

Ways that u Reuse, Reduce, And Recycle?

My family is extrmely big on recycling and reusing things. When we get a glass jar, like after we’re done with a pickle jar we wash the jar and use it as a drinking glass and we HAVE to use recycled paper or both sides before we recycle it… again. So I was just wondering what you thought of these ideas and what do you guys do to use the 3 Rs and protect our earth. obviously 10 points goes to the best answer

The Expert answers:

I think it’s good to recycle…we recycle through our garbage company, paper, plastic, etc. We also used a old glass juice bottle for other juices, an empty one gallon ice cream bucket for big cleaning jobs. I use freecycle and give away old stuff I don’t use anymore that is still good. Better to give to someone that have it sit in a landfill. I use Brita Water filters rather than buying bottled water and if I fill up water bottles and drink from those. I also use a book swapping site so if I don’t want it I trade it, you can give away the unpostables with another order.

Betty asks…

The Expert answers:

Joseph asks…

I need a job…?

I’m 15 years old and I have no job experience. What kind of jobs are available to me?

The Expert answers:

Where do you live?
When I was fifteen in order to work somewhere I had to fill out papers for my worker’s permit first.
You can ask your counselor or principal at school for an application.
Or you can do a city job, like your local recycling center for example.

But it varies depending on where you live! Check it out.

Steven asks…

recycle bin from a shared drive?

Really tiny server at my girlfriends job, no IT person to speak of.

Server has two hard drives. The C drive and the M drive which is the main storage space. There’s a folder on the M drive for shared documents that all the other PCs (hers included) are mapped to. She accidentally deleted a file from the shared folder while on her computer.

I have access to the server but how do I get to the recycle bin of that drive?
Marvin: Well going through the shared drive isn’t my only access. I can actually walk to the server PC, click on My Computer and see the actual M drive. Are you saying the M drive won’t have a recycle bin?
well crap…

The Expert answers:

If she deleted a file across the network it doesn’t go to the recycle bin. It’s gone. She can pay large amounts of money to recover the file, but aside from that there is nothing she can do.

To clarify: if you are on the actual server via direct input or through remote desktop, you can delete a file off any local drive and it will go to the recycle bin, unless the server has been configured to delete files automatically. If you are using a shared folder through another PC, deleted files are just deleted, period.

Donna asks…

What is sustainability studies and what Kind of job can you get with it?
