Why now?

Now is the time. I saw a sign at a garden nursery that said, “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today.” The same can be said for recycling–the best time was 20 years ago, the second-best time is today!

Today our landfills are overflowing

p

The average person throws away 4.5 pounds of glass each day. Do the math

p

Each month we throw away enough glass jars and bottles to fill a giant skyscraper.

p

Today the glass bottle we toss in the trash will still be there 1 million years from now.

Today glass can be recycled infinitely with no loss of quality – in effect, melting glass to make new glass is the same as melting sand. That means fewer natural resources are taken from the environment.
