Freecycling

The concept of Freecycling is gaining in popularity, claiming more than 4,300 groups with 4,800,000 members globally.

When someone has an item that is usable but they no longer need, they offer it to others free of charge via a network of local websites, thus keeping it out of their local landfill.

Conversely, if a member has a need for a particular item, fellow freecyclers might be able to fulfill it, creating a powerful cycle of generosity, gratitude, and earth awareness.

If a local group isn't yet open in your area, you might consider starting one!

Thanks Kelly,

This was recommended by a friend and I just joined my local group yesterday. It looks like it has lots of action.
