ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

It's a wrap for Halloween

TerraCycle Mars Include USA
Forget, for a moment, the concerns about all the candy most kids will be carting home from trick-or-treat tonight. Push aside, if you will, the worries about tooth decay, childhood obesity and those extended sugar highs. What about all those wrappers? Terracycle -- a company that hates waste and that has made dealing with it a quirky, funky mission -- will gladly take them off your kids' sticky little hands. The New Jersey company is known for its "brigades" in schools and at other nonprofits. These teams collect juice pouches, potato chip bags and more -- dozens of otherwise "trash" items -- and then send them to Terracycle, which pays two cents per item.
