ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

RECYCLE USED CAR SEATS

From Sept. 1-11, Humble-area residents can recycle used car seats. Targets across Texas are hosting a car seat collection program to help residents reduce household clutter without sending waste to landfills. All car seats collected through this program will be recycled through TerraCycle so that each component will see a second life. Residents should bring their car seats to 20777 Hwy. 59 North or 6931 FM 1960 Road East, and look for Target’s car seat collection box in the front of the store or in the baby/kids floor pad section. Turn in a used car seat and receive a coupon for 20 percent off the purchase of a new one. TerraCycle will then separate the different components of the car seats (cloth elements, plastics, metals, etc.) and process for use in other products. For information, visit www.terracycle.com.

Stream: Gentrification, Dramatized The rising tide of high-quality television doesn’t lift all boats. Participant Media recently announced it would shut down its three-year-old cable channel, Pivot, one of the multitude of outlets scrambling to build a reputation for original programming. Pivot made quirky, interesting choices: the unsettling Arctic murder mystery “Fortitude”; the Australian coming-out comedy “Please Like Me”; and “Human Resources,” an “Office”-like documentary series about an actual New Jersey recycling company.
