Did you know?

Nine-tenths of all solid waste in the United States does not get recycled.
Although 75% of America’s waste is recyclable, we only recycle around 30% of it.
The U.S. recycling rate is around 34.5%. If we’re able to get the rate to 75%, the effect will be like removing 50 million passenger cars from U.S. roads.
Over 11 million tons of recyclable clothing, shoes, and textiles make their way into landfills each year.
The United States throws away $11.4 billion worth of recyclable containers and packaging every year.
