Terracycle: Recycled Gifts and Products

I came across a website the other day, TerraCycle. They collect wrappers from energy bars, yogurt cups and drink pouches and recycle them into many products. You can shop or you can contribute to their collection.


Here are some examples:

The company started when 2 students from Princeton University had a vision to "change the way people do business". Now, you can find their products on-line or in select stores.

Here is Pittsburgh you can find some of eco friendly products at: Walgreens, Target, Home Depot or Whole Foods. But I would check out the website for more variety.

They also have a holiday shopping section "coming soon". I definitely will be doing some of my shopping with them this year.

Thanks Terracycle!
