Recycle your clean paper, Harlem!

Link posted by Publisher 47 weeks ago

GrowNYC has a new interactive website that shows New Yorkers what things we've been throwing out that we can (and should) be recycling instead!  At the top of that list is PAPER!  Over 775.220 TONS of recycleable paper is thrown into the trash each year.

"Nearly a quarter of NYC's waste is recyclable paper! Be sure to recycle all clean paper. Reduce your carbon footprint further by taking your name off of mass mailing lists with the Direct Mail Marketing Association, reducing catalog waste with Catalog Choice, opting out of offers for credit cards and insurance through the Consumer Credit Reporting Industry and stopping unwanted telephone books."

Do your part, Harlem!

We hear the words recycle, 'green living' as well as eco-friendly solutions these days and it is about time to get on that wagon and show our support for the conservation of our natural resources. We may not see the connection of purhcasing paper or plastic products and the environment but there is a great impact on how we consume these items, even our electronic gadgets. With the help of recycling and Texas shredding facilities (for example), there is still a chance for us to save what is left of our precious natural resources and educate the future generations of their importance.
