Share and Voice: Recycling Online

Nowadays, you can do almost anything online.I came across a concept I thought was really cool. You can recycle online! The website ecycler.com does just that. You can recycle anything you normally would recycle. Recycling service costs money and this site is designed to set up users with other users who want their recyclable products. So instead of paying, you can recycle for FREE! This website is free to all users. It allows you to look for items, giveaway items and track the amount that you recycle. What it does is it connects those looking to get rid of lets say old newspapers with those in the area who are looking for old newspapers. They enter their information on the site, it alerts others in the area and then you put your product out on the curb for a pick up. It's really simple and I thought it was cool innovative idea. Soon everything will be able to be done over the internet!

  2. That's great, there are starting to be more and more conveniences out there that actually work for the environment rather than against it.

  3. I think that is really interesting. I like that we are depending on each other for this. It once again shows that we can actually do things ourselves to help the environment. It reminds me of the video you posted recently, Trash to Treasure. Someone's trash is someone else's treasure.
