Algumas embalagens plásticas mesmo que destinadas corretamente na coleta seletiva, não são reaproveitadas e recicladas devido sua complexidade química.

Survey data indicates that, compared to older generations, younger generations are more supportive of environmental legislation and the notion that global climate change is the result of human activity, yet are simultaneously less likely to recycle or recognize the benefits of recycling.

TerraCycle is on a mission to eliminate the idea of waste. They do this by creating waste collection programs (each one is called a “Brigade”) for previously non-recyclable, or difficult-to-recycle, waste. The collected waste is then converted into new products, ranging from recycled park benches to upcycled backpacks.

Lipscomb University and Lipscomb Academy elementary school are hosting two household waste collections — one from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday at the Lipscomb Academy campus at 4517 Granny White Pike, and one from9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Lipscomb Academy football field at Lealand and Caldwell lanes. In addition to the household items, they will accept quirky, hard-to-recycle items such as potato chip bags, candy wrappers, drink pouches, ink pens, dried-up markers and more to redeem through the Terracycle Brigade. The collection days also will accept aluminum cans, plastic bottles and newspapers.

In honor of Good Day Philadelphia's Recycling Week Event, TerraCycle was featured as a part of a segment highlighting our Brigade partnership with Garnier in the Personal Care & Beauty Brigade!

Dans le cadre de la protection de l'environnement, l'école maternelle Ceccaldi a mis en place depuis un an un programme de recyclage des déchets non pris en charge par le tri séléctif et enéchange, la société "TerraCycle" concernée, reverse des fonds à la coopérative de l'école, ce qui permet en outre d'introduire les notions de protection de l'environnement et de gestes éco-responsables.
