And there are company names on the Inner City 100 that many of us have heard before, including Pandora Internet Radio, of Oakland, Calif. (No. 2), TerraCycle, of Trenton (No. 4), and Angie's List, of Indianapolis (No. 26).

Além da Nestlé, outras empresas já se uniram à TerraCycle: a Pepsico, pelas marcas de salgadinhos Doritos e Ruffles, a BRFoods, tanto pelas embalagens de congelados da marca Perdigão quanto pela marca Doriana e a KraftFoods, pela marca de sucos instantâneos TANG.

The Old Navy stores in Annapolis, Severna Park and Hanover will be collecting used flip flops through May 21 as part of TerraCycle's Flip Flop Replay program. TerraCycle, a New Jersey-based recycling company, will then take the flip flops and recycle them into playground equipment. Each Old Navy store has a box near the entrance where shoppers can drop off their flip flops.

Material reunido pela brigada será transformado em novos produtos

One group of Oconee County elementary school students has managed to put a dent in that mountain of foil and plastic one lunch period at a time. Fifth-graders at Malcom Bridge Elementary School have collected about 20,000 juice pouches, the kind used by Capri Sun and Kool-Aid, since September. They can't be recycled locally, but the students send them to an out-of-town company that pays them 2 cents a bag for their trouble.

  Kraft Foods is also partnering with TerraCycle, the international upcycling and recycling company that turns packaging wrappers into affordable, eco-friendly products. This summer all of the Kraft and Polly-O packaging wrappers collected at Six Flags will be upcycled into useful products while saving waste from landfills.

Kraft Foods' string cheeses -- branded Polly-O on the East Coast and
Kraft elsewhere in the country -- are teaming with Six Flags
Entertainment Corp. for a multiplatform "Twisted Fun" promotion this
summer. The promotion also brings in a sustainability element, through a
partnership with the TerraCycle, Inc. "upcycling" company.
