TerraCycle L'Oreal Frito Lay Include USA
TerraCycle announced today that Hamilton would serve as the pilot township for its "Chip In For Change" program, which aims to collect 10 percent of empty chip bags thrown out by Hamilton residents.
TerraCycle founder and CEO Tom Szaky said at a town hall press conference that Hamilton recycles less than 1 percent of its used chip bags. The program aims to bring that number up to as high as 30 percent, equivalent to the rate of soda bottles or aluminum cans.
