VA Green Routine recognizes recycling as a major component of how we will green VA. America Recycles Day — http://www.americarecyclesday.org/ — TODAY November 15th.
Here are the top reasons from the National Recycling Coalition why you should redouble your recycling efforts today and everyday:
1. Recycling is good for the economy – American companies rely on recycling programs to provide the raw materials they need to make new products. 2) Recycling creates jobs – Recycling in the U.S. is a $236 billion a year industry. More than 56,000 recycling and reuse enterprises employ 1.1 million workers nationwide. 3) Recycling reduces waste. The average American discards 4.5 pounds of garbage every day; most of which goes into landfills, where it’s compacted and buried. To find out where you can recycle all kinds of products (batteries, carpet, paint, etc.) visit www.earth911.com.
