Auch wenn Müllverwertung in Österreich gut funktioniert, wird kosmetischer Abfall wie Cremetuben, Tiegel & Dosen derzeit nicht vollständig recycelt. Das soll sich jetzt ändern: Ab sofort können alle Produkte der Marke VICHY nachhaltig entsorgt und erstmals zu 100 Prozent recycelt werden, anstatt in Müllverbrennungsanlagen zu enden.

DePaolo Middle School is competing to win a playground made from recycled oral care waste through the second annual Recycled Playground Challenge, courtesy of Colgate-Palmolive (“Colgate”), the global oral care leader; ShopRite, which has more than 250 stores in the Northeast; and recycling pioneer TerraCycle.

Though the thin plastic roll bags can't be recycled in city-collected recycling bins, they can be recycled at the Co-op starting June 8. The grocery will collect the bags under a partnership with the recycling company Terra Cycle, which specializes in "hard-to-recycle waste" including toothpaste tubes, baby food pouches and energy bar wrappers.

After the success of the first Colgate Community Recycle Drive that diverted over 45,000 pieces of used oral care products from landfill, Colgate is inviting all schools and community groups to take part in the 2016 edition of the competition.

New Zealanders can save used oral care items from landfill and join a nationwide competition to help raise funds for a local school, club or community group.

You've heard of the tooth fairy. How about the toothbrush fairy? One company is hoping to be just that with the return of a nationwide oral care product recycling drive. TerraCycle, which specialises in recycling the hard-to-recycle, is calling on schools, clubs and community groups to keep old toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and floss containers out of landfills by donating them for reuse.
