Old Navy stores and an international recycling company are teaming up to recycle old flip-flops into playground equipment.

A parceria entre a unidade de Chocolates da Nestlé com a TerraCycle, líder global na coleta e reuso de resíduos pós-consumo, acaba de registrar um expressivo resultado: o programa - que teve início em outubro de 2010 e visa recolher e transformar embalagens de chocolate em sacolas, bolsas e estojos - superou a marca de 130 mil embalagens de chocolates coletadas.
Copos apresentam mensagem de sustentabilidade e promovem a consciência do consumidor para reciclagem.
No Brasil, a PepsiCo também há muito tempo tem dedicado esforços para tratar os resíduos. Em 2009, a empresa assinou acordo com a TerraCycle, empresa especializada na transformação de resíduos em bolsas, estojos e lancheiras. Além disso, a companhia também produziu mais de 20 mil displays reciclados de BOPP em 2010 para os pontos de venda. Para 2011 a meta é conquistar esse mesmo número de displays BOPP. Soma-se a isso a preocupação em conscientizar consumidores a reciclar, bem como informar as cooperativas de catadores de lixo. Para tanto, foram lançadas ainda em 2010 as Brigadas PepsiCo, que têm o objetivo de engajar os consumidores no processo de reciclagem de resíduos.
Have you heard about Upcycle It!?
Sustainable Westford's innovative program collects non-recyclables such as chip bags, granola bar wrappers, cookie wrappers and more to keep them out of the waste stream.
These items are sent to a company called
TerraCycle. TerraCycle donates two cents per item and pays for shipping. These items are then upcycled into new products such as backpacks, tote bags, and flower pots.
