“GRAYL is committed to designing and manufacturing with a sustainable mindset and in the coming months will implement a zero waste cartridge recycling program in partnership with TerraCycle®. This program will empower customers to trade-in their Purifier Cartridges at end of life and be rewarded with a discount for replacement Purifier Cartridges. The program will be supported online and by many participating retailers.”

Stylos, marqueurs, correcteurs… Et si vous transformiez vos stylos usagés… en bancs publics ! En partenariat avec TerraCycle, la marque Bic finance plus de 4 000 points de collecte en France pour recycler stylos, surligneurs, marqueurs et correcteurs en tube (toutes marques confondues). Les matériaux sont séparés, puis broyés pour être recyclés en mobilier urbain (liste sur le site de TerraCycle).  

Members, families and guests came before the zoo opened for a light breakfast on the high temperature day which lowered the attendance. But folks who came had fun and brought recyclable items to donate to the TerraCycle program to support the Zoo’s mission to save the environment.

« Le réel problème de notre société, c’est ce concept de « disposabilité ». Il faut que de plus en plus de gens se coupent de cette idée », soutient Tom Szaky, p.-d.g. de TerraCycle, devenu le nouveau prophète de la consigne après avoir été un des chefs de file de l’industrie planétaire du recyclage

While Styrofoam cannot be put in the recycling bin, the Monona Public Library has a volunteer-driven TerraCycle program for Styrofoam and consumer items such as toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes and potato chip bags. “Monona Library is a drop-off site for TerraCycle items and Styrofoam as a community give-back,” said Sally Buffat, business coordinator for the Monona Public Library. “These are just two of many examples of how the city of Monona is committed to 100 percent clean energy and resilience.”

Bring all of those bottle caps that you have been saving to the Green Team tent. This is the week of the collection for recycling. Bottle caps will be shipped to TerraCycle to be repurposed.

Two TerraCycle collections will be held for candy and snack wrappers (candy, chips, granola bars and other snacks), and the Tom’s of Maine Natural Care Recycling Program will accept any brand of toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes, mouthwash containers, deodorant containers, soap packaging and floss containers.

MŌDA’s Renew brushes have 100% biodegradable handles that are made from a sustainable plant-based polymer (so they won’t ever end up in landfills!) The kit comes with four different brushes. If you’re looking to further your contribution to the zero-waste lifestyle, you can send any of your old makeup brushes to the company to be properly recycled through their TerraCycle No-Waste boxes.

If you can’t the next best thing is definitely recycling and recycling the bottles you have. TerraCycle has a great vitamin bottles program you can join. Basically, they send you a cardboard box, you fill it with your vitamin bottle waste, and send it back. TerraCycle will make sure it’s recycled correctly.
