Das Recycling von Zigarettenstummeln ist in Deutschland nun flächendeckend möglich. Dank einer nationalen Umweltinitiative des Recycling-Unternehmens TerraCycle kann der Zigarettenabfall zu 100 Prozent recycelt werden.
Während Papier sowie Tabak kompostiert werden, dienen die Filter der Erzeugung von anderen Plastikprodukten. An diesem kostenlosen Programm teilnehmen können Vereine, Diskotheken, Restaurants, Hotels, Schwimmbäder und alle, die sich für die Umwelt einsetzen wollen.

Summer is still officially here, but for our children back to school is closing in on the horizon! Soon they will be back with their friends, teachers, and school books; lockers will be slamming and they will be racing off to the next class.
This year, send them off to school with something from TerraCycle.
TerraCycle offers various school supplies that allow students to be expressive with their supplies and accessories while also caring for the environment. TerraCycle, a recycling and upcycling company, uses traditionally non-recyclable items to create a variety of cool, creative and eco-friendly school supplies.
TerraCycle's Drink Pouch
Pencil Case is perfect for younger children to take to the classroom. Sturdy and cute, the pencil case is made from upcycled drink pouch materials that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill. TerraCycle also offers shiny, flexible upcycled Sun Chips folders to help keep students organized.
Environmentally conscious parents can send their kids back to school with upcycled TerraCycle backpacks, made with materials from food and snack companies like Frito-Lay. Not just for young children, these well-crafted and stylish backpacks could be a fun and eco-friendly statement for college bound students. Aside from backpacks, the TerraCycle Doritos Messenger Bag, made from actual Doritos bags, can help students pack for class while reminding them of their favorite snacks.
One of my favorite items from TerraCycle is this sharp, functional messenger bag; it is made from pre-consumer waste from the Doritos X-13D packaging material. The messenger bag comes with an adjustable strap.

HEISKELL, TN – Students and teachers at Fairview Elementary School are among the top collectors of lunch kits in the Lunch Kit Brigade®, a free, national recycling program created by Lunchables® Lunch Combinations and TerraCycle®. By collecting used lunch kits, the school has helped to divert 3,830 units of lunch kit waste from landfills.
After they sign up to join a recycling Brigade, schools earn points for every unit of waste they collect and send to TerraCycle. The points can be redeemed for charitable gifts or a cash donation to the non-profit or school of the collector’s choice. TerraCycle recycles the traditionally non-recyclable lunch kit waste into new products and materials.
“We’re very proud of the work that students and teachers at Fairview Elementary have done for this Brigade,” said TerraCycle CEO Tom Szaky. “We love working with Lunchables® to celebrate and reward schools doing such great things for the environment.”
