As we've started working on developing the Green Products Expo, I've researched the "state of green" in our home state of SC. The latest stats from 2006 indicates that our county recylces 18.6% of our waste...whereas our target is 35%. I've read where the residents of San Fancisco recycle 60%-70% of their waste!
So....I went by our local city recycling center and picked up another "blue bin." We already recycle, to some extent at home and at the office. As a Rock Hill, SC city resident we have weekly pickup service for recycling, while at our office in Fort Mill, SC, we have a very large recycling bin for paper & aluminum/glass, but we are required to take it to the recycling center.
I'm starting a concerted effort at home to increase our recycling effort with the 2nd blue bin.
