As consumers we make a choice with every purchase. Not to sound preachy, but we should be aware of where we spend our hard earned dollars.

Lors de l'assemblée générale de l'AGAS, il a été rappelé qu'un recyclage des stylos usagés est organisé par celle-ci grâce à l'entreprise Terracycle dans le but de venir en aide à une association humanitaire.

TerraCycle, a company that works with local groups to encourage recycling of difficult-to-recycle products, has named Immanuel Lutheran School in Loveland as one of its top-five collectors.
9. Recycle. Recycling is a great way for kids to get involved in taking care of the planet. Talk to your kids about the items that wind up in the recycling bin and how they can be recycled into new products. Or you can also check out some of the recycling opportunities available from groups like
TerraCycle where you can earn money for your school or community organization by collecting items like candy wrappers or juice pouches so that they can be remade into cool new stuff.
TerraCycle takes potato chip wrappers, foil wrappers from candy bars and other junk food, as well as department store plastic bags, and uses these materials to create a variety of items from messenger bags to office supplies. To find out more about their products and how you can contribute to this fun creative recycling process, go to
