I am talking about the plastic bags that package many of our goods, from a bag of dry pasta to a plastic bag that houses a magazine for delivery. That is a lot of cartons and plastic going to the land fill!) Though its understood that perhaps these items need to remain separated from other recyclable products, rubbish companies should provide recycle bins that have compartments where consumers can do our part in separating these products to assist in keeping our earth up to par.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841621982924656691.post-48688976559060571072011-04-07T00:03:02.159-04:002011-04-07T00:03:02.159-04:00students at each school drink about 300 little pap...students at each school drink about 300 little paper milk cartons a day. I am going to try to get our school to recycle them. We used to and then we stopped. In Washington state you can recycle them. If we all did this at our schools where we work or where our children go to school.....just think about the difference it would make. Those kids then will recycle at home the bigger milk cartons.

But does that mean the TetraPak is not waxed? I have a feeling that even if I put out only TetraPak milk cartons they will still be tossed in the trash rather than recycled.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841621982924656691.post-85101782655907604752009-05-25T10:50:47.815-04:002009-05-25T10:50:47.815-04:00Thanks for this info.
