Did You Know?

In a lifetime, the average American will throw away 600 times his or her adult weight in garbage. This means that each adult will leave a legacy of as much as 100,000 pounds of trash for his or her children. Americans throw away enough office and writing paper each year to build a wall twelve-feet high stretching from New York City to Los Angeles. Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a television, or operate a computer for three hours. Read more recycling facts here.
