As we are quickly approaching the holiday season I find myself thinking about the amount of trash and recyclables that we are going accumulate- everything from the containers that our food is coming in all the way to the wrapping paper from opening gifts...and the list goes on. I hate having to guess if something can actually be recycled or not...and what if I pitch it and it actually could have been recycled!?! Then what?
It has me thinking about what the recycling symbols actually stand for? I have been searching for the correct explanation of the plastic protocol, and I have finally found a great explanation!! This site does a wonderful job of explaining what each symbol stands for and what types of products it represents!
Here is another great site about recycling. It has lots of options and ideas about recycling, reuseing, upcycling and where to discard the item if you truely have no use for it!
And here is a nice way to recycle your old wine corks!
