Some fun facts to ponder.. The average person generates over 4 pounds of trash every day and about 1.5 tons of solid waste per year. Americans make more than 200,000,000 tons of garbage each year, enough to fill Busch Stadium from top to bottom twice a day. Next time you are at eight sporting event or tailgate, host a trash free tailgate using only recyclable materials… The EPA estimates that 75% of the American waste stream is recyclable, but we only recycle about 30% of it. We generate 21,.5 million tons of food waste every year. If we can’t posted that food, it would reduce the same amount of greenhouse gas as taking 2 million cars off the road. recycling one aluminum can save enough energy to listen to a full album on your iPod. Recycling 100 cans could let your bedroom for two whole weeks. The container recycling institute estimates that the 36 billion aluminum cans Landfield last year had a scrap value of more than $600 million dollars. Americans throwaway about 28 billion bottles and jars every day. over 87% of Americans have access to curbside or drop off paper recycling programs. in 2009, Americans threw away almost 9,000,000 tons of glass. That could fill enough tractor trailers to stretch from New York City to Los Angeles and back. in 2thousand 10, paper recycling had increased over 89% since 1990. A glass container can go from a recycling been to a store shelf in as few as 30 days… Go to do something.org and find out how you can make a difference and save our planet. #dogood #makeadifference #giveback #clickforgood #spreadlove #youshopwegive #volunteer #chooselove #recycle #recycleforourfuture #recycleforlife #recycleforourchildren (at Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnzW6unBnKQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dm3rkwzv5z8n

Let’s spotlight companies that #giveback ❤️ @ivoryella Did you know that elephants grieve and even try to bury their dead? According to National Geographic, nearly 100,000 elephants have been killed by poachers in the last three years. That’s a lot of sadness for a creature that experiences emotions. Ivory Ella is hoping to stop these poachers and help save elephant lives by donating 10% of their net profits to save the elephant, a canyon organization that tracks, monitors, and secures elephant populations. Products include drinkware, hats and apparel and range in price from six dollars to $40 #savetheelephants #clickforgood #youshopwegive #chooselove #giveback #bekind #peta #showkindness @ivoryella www.ivoryella.com (at New York, New York)
