They are constantly working to minimize their waste stream. These efforts inspired a partnership with TerraCycle in order to “upcycle” Clif Bar wrappers (with the exception of CLIF Kid Organic Twisted Fruit® and CLIF SHOT® foods).  TerraCycle sponsors their Wrapper Brigade to incentivize wrapper recycling.  So far they have recycled over 10 million wrappers and goods made from the recycled wrappers have helped raise over $30,000 for non-profit organizations.  In addition, all Clif Bar caddies are 100 percent shrink wrap free and made with 100 percent recycled (65 percent post-consumer) paperboard.

  To help celebrate Earth Month, Earth Day, Easter and Cinco de Mayo, TerraCycle is launching several campaigns that put a new spin on recycling, making it more creative then ever and easy for everyone to get involved. On April 11, TerraCycle will join with the Garnier Brand to provides the first comprehensive solution for all cosmetic packaging waste. Billions of pieces of waste are expected to be collected by Garnier which will dramatically reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills.  Through the sponsorship of worldwide Cosmetics Brigade, cosmetic packaging will be collected and shipped to a TerraCycle facility. All kinds of cosmetic waste that would otherwise end up in our trash can now be recycled or reused. This is huge. Not too long ago I was discussing reusing and recycling cosmetic waste. Now Garnier and TerraCycle offer a fabulous solution.

  Extreme recyclers will have a chance to get rid of old pens and flip-flops at local stores this month. Office Depot and Old Navy are working with New Jersey-based TerraCycle to dispose of these items while keeping them out of landfills. Between April 17 and 23, shoppers can bring in 10 used pens, markers or mechanical pencils to Office Depot and receive a coupon toward new Sanford products (maker of Sharpie, Expo, PaperMate). The used writing instruments will be sent to TerraCycle to be recycled into new office products such as trash cans and desk organizers. Office Depot has two Vancouver locations: 8812 N.E. Fifth Ave. and 11505 N.E. Fourth Plain Road.

If you travel in green circles, you may already be familiar with “upcycling.” But for those new to the term, upcyling simply means reusing an old product you’d otherwise throw away or toss in recycling. Upcycled items still retain the look of an original object, whereas recycling breaks down the material in that object to pure plastic, glass, or aluminum. Wondering why you should turn your empty wine bottle into a vase instead of letting it languish in the recycling bin? Learn the top three reasons why you should upcycle instead of recycle.

Recently I heard about a company called TerraCycle, and what I heard about them made me want to know more.  I did some research and found that this is a company that is really doing great things to keep this planet green. What does TerraCycle do you ask?  Well, TerraCycle collects waste that usually ends up in a landfill through their various Brigade programs.  There are several programs including the Candy Wrapper Brigade, Cell Phone Brigade, Personal Care and Beauty Brigade, and the MP3 Player Brigade, just to name a few.   Through these programs, waste is collected, it is then shipped back to TerraCycle who then turns the waste into new products.  Here are some of the products they create with drink pouches.
