Green Apartment Living How Can I "Go Green" while living in an apartment?

Question by Heidi: How Can I “Go Green” while living in an apartment?
I live in an Apartment above a furniture store. There are only 4 apartments including mine. And the walkway to each apartment is connected and there’s only about a 3 foot wide balcony. Just wide enough to walk through.
My landlord takes care of the water and trash bills.
Well, our trash is just disposed of in a trash dumpster.
There is no other way to dispense it.
So, what I was wondering is How can I recycle when there is no space for recycling bins?
I also use energy efficient light bulbs instead of the other ones.
But I still pay outrageous electricity bills..even when I hardly use any electricity.
I want to “Go Green” very badly.
Any help would be appreciated.
Oh.. and how should I throw away grease?
I never can get a straight answer cause I heard it’s bad for your drains and I don’t want to poor it in the ground.
