A number of difficult-to-recycle and non-recyclable items, including nearly 500 juice pouches, will get a new lease on life, thanks to Belle Aire School’s Trash for Cash program. The Belle Aire PTA decided last fall to collect items to send to TerraCycle, a national company that makes new green consumer products out of post-consumer materials, such as backpacks created from drink pouches. TerraCycle takes in some 100 materials that would normally get thrown in the trash, and Belle Aire formed brigades to collect four of those items: juice pouches, diaper wrappings, food storage containers such as re-sealable sandwich bags, and tape dispenser rolls.
