Recycle
Eco-Friendly Party™ believes in the importance of having a strategy to manage the trash we produce while we are celebrating! In America we recycle just 28% of the trash we generate, and a large amount of this waste comes from our parties.
Remember if we recycle, we reduce greenhouse gasses emitted by factories that produce plastic and we reduce the felling of trees. Plastic, glass and plastic can be used to make new products or packaging. If we don't get in the habit of recycling, we are going to need more planets for all the trash we generate!
To give you an idea: 100% recycled paper napkins use over 97% less carbon dioxide (CO2) than bleached napkins and 95% less water!
Part of our mission is to help you organize you party trash. Maybe you think that your trash is not so big, but it all counts and it all matters. We believe in small changes because small changes create big ones. So join us to change little by little and become an eco-hero!
This Friendly Recycling guide helps you know what goes where, so you can recycle properly.
