Using Recycled Materials

Purchasing products packaged in reclyclable materials is great. Purchasing products in already-recycled materials? Even better. The most avid recycler in the world can be making little to no difference if they aren’t also using recycled materials; after all, if you don’t use them, who does? And then what’s the point of recycling them in the first place?

We all know what the recycling symbol looks like, but next time you’re out shopping look for the dark circle with the light recycling sign (three arrows in a triangular loop) inside it, indicating that the packaging, etc is made from already recycled materials.
