Did you know you can donate your hair to Matter of Trust and help soak up the Gulf oil spill? According to this Matador article, one gallon of hair can soak up a quart of oil in a minute.

"Last year, 2,600 oil spills happened around the world. Keep collecting your hair and pet fur, frequent salons and groomers that donate, and ask your local salons and groomers to donate if they don’t already."
