You might want to tell that to big business. They are the ones spewing black smoke from the factories, spilling oil in the water and generally polluting the crap out of this world. If you think that a little freon or some Jersey girl's can of Aquanet (sorry Jersey chicks) is going to make a difference, I think you aren't seeing the big picture. There are some interesting articles out there to read.

Oh trust me I know. But even the lil things matter. If you don't start out somewhere, then you never started at all. I wish they could do something with these companies. But again, money over life rules all. Funny enough I learned about pollution from Godzilla movies when I was a lil kid. It's hard for me to read about what things do to the ecosystem and people in general.

The world is a mess. Everyone should do what they think is right. Some recycle, some contribute to the college funds of the girls at Lollipops... :rockon:

It's a huge mess. My first job was for a guy across the street from me who painted cars. I look back now and think of all the super toxic crap I had in my hands. And all the crap he dumped out. And this is just one guy out of million who do this.

I like to think I could blame someone else (Nasa..factories etc.) when my child gets cancer from drinking the water... but who wants to blame themselves?
So yes I will be getting a pro. to come out and do it....just for the peace of mind.

it is a good thing only a few people drain it themselves a year i'm sure. Check your local garbage dump.

Remember what Smokey says: "Only you can prevent forest fires!"


Tree hugger has a negative connotation. I prefer "environmentally aware". And yes I am environmentally aware.

Pay the money and do it right. You will sleep better at night.:salute:

Nate
To bad you don't live up here in No Va I could get one of my HVAC guys to do it for a few bucks which leads me to the suggestion of if you know any HVAC or auto mech who may do it on the side for you for a whole lot less or if you see some guys at the local 7-11, quickstop , or whatever they call them down there and see if they wouldn't want to do it on the side.

Due to the gov't regs only some places/people can do it legally so business feel that is a great reason to overcharge.

If for some reason you decide to do it yourself, keep it to yourself and tell NO ONE because the fines for that a fairly steep.

I actually like the saying "tree hugger" :sunny: But I do know where your coming from, I use the word "green" when I describe myself more so then "tree hugger" but yes in the end it all translates into "environmentally aware"
