Recycling stuff is easy?

Recycling is fairly easy for us these days. Just pop that used bottle, can or newspaper in the bin and put it out at the curb on pick-up day. While this is a commendable action, some people go further. They compost old food, reuse household items again and again, and even help spread the word about how recycling, reusing and re-purposing helps the planet.

This is where the easy part ends. There is an entire industry devoted to transforming our used paper, plastic, metal and glass into usable materials to make brand new products. Not only does this process save  a great deal of energy in the manufacturing processes, but it most importantly keeps these used items out of landfills.

The following link will take you to a "Wired" article about Virginia-based apparel company "Renew Merchandise" and will show you how the process can work.
