*Recycling 1 pop can saves the equivalent energy of having a t.v. or computer on for 3 hours.
 
*Recycling 1 glass bottle saves the equivalent energy of having a 100 watt light bulb on for 4 hours. (instead of manufacturing from our limited natural resources)
 
*Glass & aluminum can be recycled indefinitely without losing its quality.
 
*Organics in landfills create methane gas, but composting does not.
 
*Methane gas is 21 times worse than CO2, so improve air quality by supporting GreenCart.
