Step 5
Why join the standardized label solution?
Problem: Confusion at the recycling bin equals garbage.
Solution: Society-wide
standardized labels for recycling bins.
Standardized labels on recycling bins are the #1 solution for the environment today because they make it easier for people to begin to recycle right. Recycling is the most important action society can do to simultaneously help the environment, the economy, manfuacturing and to prevent waste from going into oceans -- but recycling doesn't work if society is confused at the bin. The standardized labels are proven to help increase recycling levels 50-100% and significantly decrease the costly garbage thrown in recycling bins.
It's that simple.
