What goes around does come around! There's no doubt that recycling is an important environmental stewardship effort which reaps many benefits key to the long-term sustainability of our planet.
Did you know that...
---->Recycling a soda can saves 96% of the energy used to make a can from ore, produces 95% less air pollution and 97% less water pollution?
---->One recycled aluminum can is equivalent in energy to a half a can full of gasoline?
---->If every American household recycled just one out of every ten discarded HDPE bottles (used in milk jugs and most shampoo and detergent bottles), it would keep 200,000,000 pounds of plastic out of landfills.
It doesn't take much....just an extra trash can and in some cities you probably even have access to a special curbside service that will haul it away for you!!!! Just check with your local chamber of commerce. Just ONE small step to make such a HUGE difference!!
