Within reason. Your failure to protect your property jeopardizes mine.

Fire is a real serious threat. Please simply review the videos online of the Santa Rosa, CA and Paradise, CA fires. Or even the Bandon, OR fire that wiped out the entire town. Harden your property to prevent fire, period. It's way overdue. Other states long ago have done this.

We don't want another Wildfire like the one that burned down Talent and Phoenix

But not based on the current assessments. The Dpt. of Forestry used 3 yr-old maps to determine risk assessments, and they are NOT accurate. I zeroed in on my home in NWX, where they said we were in high risk, and the map didn't even show the house next door to me which has been there for 3 years.

Take care of yourself AND your neighbors and area around you. I certainly don't want to be responsible for causing damage and heartache to others.

Well first of all I think this info is incorrect! I got one of the letters from the State of Oregon saying my property is high risk, and it says RECOMMENDED! It did NOT say REQUIRED steps be taken! I do not believe in Government overreach! Sick and tired of Democrat control freaks!

The government needs to start LOGGING the forest so fires don't start in the current overgrown mess

Curious if the illegal campers in the forest off China Hat got their notices as well. Since they're a MUCH GREATER fire risk than the average homeowner, is anyone taking steps to create defensible space around those homes? Of course not. This only applies to legal, taxpaying homeowners, as usual!

If we want a plastic ocean then we should continue to do what we are doing.

I do but I go rounds w/ my guy. Ever since China stopped taking our recycling he stopped doing it. Idk if all that is real, I have noticed that our garbage guy just loads both cans into the same dump bin & it’s not sorted. So that’s really disturbing. Every little bit helps I feel. I rec. everything

I do what I can but live in an area where they don't have it. Still I save bottles and cardboard to take to recycling. I cook from scratch so don't really have cans.

We pay by the pound for certain items so why not pay less and recycle - it's the right thing to do for me and the environment.

Although I can only hope that it's useful because there is no proof that what is supposedly sent to the recyclers they actually carry through. You always hear about it not being done.

We take our own garbage to the dump and pay by the pound. Recycling is free so the more we recycle the less we have to pay.

We recycle everything possible. We also take cloth bags shopping, use insulated bag with blue ice for cold items & take reusable containers to restaurants for leftovers to take home.

It's not bogus I just do not have a place to drop it off in my area - if it's not close by I'm lazy and won't go out of my way (I'm a sad case).

My local recycling company charges me to recycle, even though they're already making money on recycling that which people turn in to them.
