Au Texas, Target s’associe à TerraCycle pour recycler des sièges bébés
A l’occasion du Mois de la Terre, les initiatives, bien qu’éphémères, fleurissent tant du côté des ONG, des particuliers que des entreprises. Outre Atlantique, l’enseigne de grande distribution américaine Target lance un programme ponctuel de reprise et de recyclage des sièges bébés de ses clients dans 36 magasins du Texas, en partenariat avec TerraCycle. Spécialisée dans les engrais biologiques à base d’excréments de vers de terre, TerraCycle, entreprise privée américaine basée à Houston, a fait de l’upcycling (surcyclage en français) son cheval de bataille principal, en collectant des déchets peu ou pas recyclables et en les transformant en de nouveaux produits à valeur ajoutée. En France, TerraCycle a notamment collaboré avec Bic pour l’upcycling de ses stylos jetables en objets improbables tels que poubelles, arrosoirs ou bancs de jardins. Dans le cadre du programme « Target Take Back », l’enseigne Target a choisi de s’associer à TerraCycle pour collecter et recycler les sièges bébés de voiture, qu’ils soient abimés, inutilisables ou inutilisés. Les clients ont ainsi la possibilité de rapporter leurs sièges bébés, de n’importe quelle marque, dans un des magasins Target participant à l’opération. En échange, ils pourront avoir droit à une réduction de 20% sur un siège bébé neuf – une incitation à la consommation que l’on peut déplorer mais qui encouragera sûrement les clients à faire la démarche de rapporter leurs produits en magasins. Ces sièges collectés seront traités par TerraCycle : les différents composants (tissu, plastique, métal, etc), une fois séparés, seront utilisés pour donner vie à de nouveaux objets.

Sustaining the Lakewood community
Lindsey Rankin, a mother of two and avid recycler, discovered there was a program that would recycle difficult items like tape and pens, and launched the TerraCycle School Recycling Program at Hutchinson Elementary.
By working with the school to place a variety of collection bins in the facility, and through education and training of students and teachers, Lindsey’s personal initiative has kept more than 50 pounds of writing utensils, 2,500 ink and toner cartridges and more than 544 baby food pouches out of the landfill.

“We had been talking about different ideas and … in the ShopRite flier, Colgate, ShopRite and TerraCycle had gotten together to promote this (Colgate Oral Care recycling) program. So I texted the picture to everybody on the team and I asked them what they thought about it and they said ‘go for it,’ ” Emitt said.
