With Earth Day rapidly approaching, thoughts turn toward some of our country’s worst vices like our national obsession with the quick consumption of disposable stuff which needs a real reworking. Not only is it wasteful, but it’s completely unsustainable at our current rate.
We need forward-thinkers who can look outside of the box, creative entrepreneurs with foresight and the ability to see the big picture, companies that are daring enough to challenge the disposable mindset with product life cycles that eliminate waste . . . a company like
TerraCycle, for example, which recycles consumer waste and donates money to charities at the same time.
Terracycle <http://www.terracycle.net/> will be recycling them into 4 playgrounds instead of putting them in a landfill!! Terracycle also has many other items which they recycle and you can earn money from them. Check out their website for more info...Terracycle.net <http://www.terracycle.net/>
