Mission Possibe: Who you gonna call? TerraCyclers!
TerraCycle Cigarette Waste Brigade Include USA Cheese Packaging Brigade plastic bags
Have you noticed people bending down at crosswalks and in parking lots to pick up throwaways and then place them in plastic bags? They are not throwing that aluminum tab or can away! And that was actually a cigarette butt you saw being rescued! Perhaps you have spotted the 4-foot-tall bags of cheese packaging hefted into Coyote Howling, or the arm loads of trash bags and boxes of used items being carried into the gift shop. Or have you wondered why the shop is a hive of activity with boxes being carried to and fro every Tuesday morning?
You might even be one of the lucky members of the community who has discovered the trash bins are not as full as they once were in your neighborhood! Confused? Don't be! Call a TerraCycler, or visit the TerraCycle Depot: Coyote Howling Shop for a Cause—especially on Tuesday mornings!
Or, visit one of the following churches, organizations, or businesses and ask them how they have gotten involved with taking trash back from the dumpsters and landfills to be re-purposed with zero waste.
