What glass is recyclable?

noreply@blogger.com (Coastal Environmental Partnership) — Thu, 12 Mar 2020 12:27:00 +0000

What glass is recyclable? Bottles and jars. However, drinking glasses, glass dishes and Pyrex are made to withstand high temperatures and aren’t recyclable. Neither are mirrors or window glass. Take these unbroken household glass items to the thrift store. #RecycleRightNC

Today we are showing our #EstuaryLove for the marshes and other coastal habitats that are protecting our shorelines during this winter storm! The many stems in the marsh slow down the waves moving by and the root systems help hold the shoreline together. #NCNatureFridaypic.twitter.com/RpmTsnZfm6

Use Less Plastic

Using Less Plastic

40 billion plastic utensils are used every year in just the United States. The majority of these are thrown out after just one use and end up in landfills and waterways. The Ocean Conservancy lists cutlery as among the items “most deadly” to sea turtles, birds, and mammals.

Aluminum can picked up 35 years after it was dropped.

This @CocaCola_GB can had been sitting in full view from a local woodland path for 35 YEARS until I picked it up yesterday. I wonder how many have walked past it in since 1985? Just because you didn’t drop it doesn’t mean you should ignore it. #vintagelitter #ItsMyTownpic.twitter.com/lQTcmXFFDU

Tarheels Change the Game with Recyclable Cups

UNC Will Pilot Aluminum Drink Cups at Sporting Events

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Athletics and Ball Corporation announced today a partnership to bring Ball's infinitely recyclable aluminum cup to fans at Tar Heel sporting events, beginning with the men's basketball game against Boston College on Feb. 1 at 6 p.m.

The 20-ounce recyclable drink cups feature Carolina and Coca-Cola logos and will serve soft drinks for $5 per cup at men's and women's basketball, baseball, men's and women's lacrosse, and softball games as part of a pilot program. In addition to Ball, Carolina is partnering with Coca-Cola and its concessions vendor, ARAMARK, to activate this initiative.

Carolina will become the first university in the ACC to feature the recyclable cup. These aluminum cups contain an average of more than 70% recycled content thanks to their high recycling rate.

Tire stuck around crocodile's neck.

noreply@blogger.com (Coastal Environmental Partnership) — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 13:20:00 +0000

This crocodile survived an earthquake and tsunami that struck the region in 2018 -- but the tire hadn't budged from its neck.

According to Indonesia's state-run Antara news agency, the 13-foot (4-meter) crocodile has been carrying the tire since 2016, when it was first spotted roaming the Palu River in the province of Central Sulawesi.
