Yellowplum I like this

Yellowplum is a 33 year old single woman from Belfast, Maine, USA.
Well, basically, life is good! As a jewelry designer/artisan I get to make pretty things all day and I split my time between two really beautiful towns: Belfast, Maine and Parrsboro, Nova Scotia. I've also lived in NYC (my hometown), in London, England, and in Athens, Georgia. Before starting yellowplum beads, I worked as a secretary in a doctor's office, a law firm, and a university. Before that I studied linguistics and Finnish in college. I have five cats. I'm kind of a geek. I don't like oranges. I like to take pictures, too. Maybe someday I'll show you some.
Urge Clorox to take back and recycle used Brita water filter cartridges...

Petition asking Clorox, the maker of Brita water filters to: take responsibility for the millions of plastic filter cartridges that are landfilled or incinerated each year by: 1) Redesigning its Brita filter cartridges so that the plastic housing can be refilled rather than discarded each time the filter is changed. 2) Providing a take-back program, such as the one that exists in Europe, so that used cartridges can be returned to the company for recycling. 3) Creating a system for the cartridges to be dismantled and the components recycled/reused domestically rather than landfilled, incinerated, or shipped overseas.
