Game on: TerraCycle brings Trash Tycoon to Facebook

TerraCycle Trash Tycoon Include USA
Hoping to inspire real life eco-action and give tired, old FarmVille a run for its money, TerraCycle launches Trash Tycoon, Facebook's first ever 'social upcycling game.' Make no qualms about it, I’m not a FarmVille kind of guy. At all. In fact, if FarmVille, CityVille, FrontierVille, or a Ville of any sort pops on my Facebook news feed, I’ll hide it without an ounce of hesitation. Call me what you will but these games and apps just aren’t my cup o’ social networking tea. Besides, I’m too busy posting Jazzercise Yet, I’m quite intrigued by a certain new social networking game that I don’t think I’d mind seeing show up here and there on my news feed. And heck, I’m admittedly tempted to even start playing it myself. Launched by one of my favorite green companies, Trenton, N.J.-based TerraCycle , in partnership with TreeHugger and Carbonfund.org , the game in question is called Trash Tycoon and it’s being described as Facebook’s first “social upcycling game.”
