From batteries to bras, here's what to do with waste that can't go in the recycling bin.
The Surfrider Pacific Rim Foundation’s ‘Hold On To Your Butts’ campaign has galloped out of the gate with smoking success.
The foundation recently completed its first collection of cigarette butts from the 54 butt-collecting canisters it helped install throughout the West Coast and collected a whopping 17,000 of them.
Every time you toss an aluminum can into a recycling bin, you’re living a legacy pioneered by Bill Coors. The visionary beer brewer helped introduce the idea of recyclable aluminum cans in the 1950s, and Coors Brewing has been a leader in innovative waste reduction, waste conservation, energy, and sustainable brewing practices ever since.
The organization’s history shows that building a brand, and a more sustainable future, can go hand in hand. In 2016 Coors Light cut its aluminum usage by 3.8 million pounds. All of its major breweries are landfill-free, with less than one percent of waste generated going to landfills. They’ve built the most powerful U.S. solar array at any one brewery, in Irwindale, California, which can produce the equivalent of 22 million beers per year powered by the sun. Decreasing water use and reusing brewing waste to make ethanol fuel and feed are also integral to the brand’s sustainability program.

J’ai la vive impression qu’hier encore, il était au sein et aux couches.

Australia: For the first time, Australians are being given the opportunity to recycle their contact lenses thanks to a collaboration between US firm TerraCycle and eye health product manufacturer Bausch + Lomb.
If you’re not ready to quit anytime soon, at least don’t litter. Each filter can contaminate two litres of water once in contact. That’s 9960 litres in this picture, and since my stay in the land down under is soon coming to and end,
TerraCycle Australia expect these very soon!”
