New 'trashy' reality TV show focuses on New Jersey-based recycling company
TerraCycle Include USA Human Resources Pivot
“A new show wants to redefine the meaning of trashy television. ‘Human Resources,’ which debuts Friday on the Pivot network, will focus not on hard-partying beachgoers but on a socially conscious recycling company. The ‘reality docu-drama’ chronicles what it is like to work at the Trenton-based company TerraCycle Inc. Founded in 2001 by then-20-year-old Princeton University student Tom Szaky, TerraCycle collects hard-to-recycle items, from potato chip bags to cigarette butts, and transforms them into colorful consumer products. It donates a portion of its proceeds to charity.” (Associated Press)
