Park Slope Food Co-op Won't Ban Flimsy Plastic Bags, but Will Recycle Them
TerraCycle Include USA
Though the thin plastic roll bags can't be recycled in city-collected recycling bins, they can be recycled at the Co-op starting June 8. The grocery will collect the bags under a partnership with the recycling company Terra Cycle, which specializes in "hard-to-recycle waste" including toothpaste tubes, baby food pouches and energy bar wrappers.
