Freecycling

Swap shops are spreading around the hospital! An email went out this week in one of our office buildings:

Beginning today, Sept. 1, look for the new “Take It or Leave It” freecycle swap table in the second floor elevator lobby.

Items such as paper clips, pens, pencils, paper, envelopes, manila folders, tape dispensers, staplers, binders, toner cartridges, etc …, can all be dropped off at the table (please help keep things tidy). Anyone who needs the supplies can take whatever they want from the table — just use it!

That is such a great idea, hopefully others will follow this path. Waste is just not good, I think we lived in the land of plenty for so long that we forget what to lack feels like.
