After five years of collecting more than 250 pounds of pens and markers, Joliet Junior College and its Sustainability Committee are recycling the massive collection to Terracycle, a company that prides itself on both recycling and upcycling almost any form of waste.
In addition, JJC’s efforts will also make a social impact: Terracycle rewards its contributors using a point system that equals donations to three charitable organizations: Charity: Water, Carbon Fund, and Eco Schools USA.
