Silly everybody knows when you\’re done with a Brita filter you kill it and feed it to a much more powerful Pur filter, then when the Pur filter dies you cut it open and sprinkle its goodness over cereal or make soup and use the blue plastic skin to make really soft condoms. What can be greener than that?

yes it will be great So a group of us have started a campaign: Take Back The Filter (http://www.resim.org) to urge Clorox to create a take-back reyclling program for its Brita filters, just as the original Brita company is already doing in Europe. Please sign our petition, send us your used filters (there is an address in Oakland — you’ll find it on the web site) and spread the word!

I know a tunnel here in LA for which this would be perfect. Driving the 110 as you connect with the 5…I’ve long admired the more crude reverse graffiti happening there already. This would be so great. Who’s the LA city person to pay for this guy to come for a visit? What’s their job title? I’ll call them up.

Wow. I love this. Will have to take a look at it before it gets dirty again.

But also just wanted to say that while Clorox is cleaning up its act in some areas, it will has some work to do. You know how they’re trying to get everyone to give up bottled water and instead buy a Brita filter? Well, what happens to all those plastic Brita filters at the end of their lives? Landfill. Not so clean.

So a group of us have started a campaign: Take Back The Filter (http://www.takebackthefilter.org) to urge Clorox to create a take-back reyclling program for its Brita filters, just as the original Brita company is already doing in Europe.
