Recycling Made Easy with Earth911.com

How can you get involved in making the world a better place? A few simple ways would be to first begin recycling products that you purchase & have laying around. Many of you already participate since some communities have recycling as part of the garbage service that picks up certain paper, glass, plastic products. If you don't recycle then start today and for at least a week recycle all product packaging, magazines, papers, envelopes etc. Clean out your garage and house. Take these special recycling products not processed through your garbage service to a recycling facility in your area. To make this process easier you can check out Earth 911.com to find a recycling center near you: Search For Recycling Centers Interestingly, Earth911.com provides a handy Apple Iphone app to help you learn about local recycling in your area. They also have a RecycleMe(tm) labeling program for businesses to help them help consumers recycle their products insuring there product life cycle loop gets closed by improving the end of life cycle for their products.
