ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Mildred student becomes eco-product design finalist

TerraCycle Elmer's Capri Sun (Kraft) Include USA
MILDRED — A 10-year-old Mildred student is showing Americans what they can do with their waste, by making it to the final four of a national eco-design competition with a product made from recyclable materials. Aniq Chunara, a fifth-grader at Mildred Elementary, used recyclable materials to create a light-up desk organizer in a process known as upcycling, where instead of recycling the products, he simply turned them into something else. The eco-product design contest, being run by Terracycle, accepted entries from schools across the United States up until March 28, and now it is down to members of the public to vote for their favorite, by no later than April 20.
