How to recycle video cassettes, denim jeans, wine corks and more: An a little greener roundup

I've noticed that some of the posts that keep getting page views on this blog are ones about How to Recycle different hard to recycle items. Since I'm approaching my 45oth post here on A Little Greener Every Day, I thought I'd sift through the back posts, and bring all the recycling ones together in one for you.

Most of these are programs that recycle things that the majority of people cannot put out at the curb on recycling day.

Wine Corks

Glue Bottles and Glue Sticks

Yogurt Containers

Denim

Polystyrene (a.k.a. Styrofoam)

Christmas Lights

Christmas Cards

Cell Phones

Cosmetic Packaging

Video Cassettes, Floppy Disks, CD's, DVD's and Audio Cassettes

I recently found out that my local Aveda salon recycles bottle caps and makes them into new bottle caps! Also, thanks to Beth Terry I discovered my Whole Foods takes #5 plastics and Britta filters.

Great post!

Nice idea. Wine Cork Recycling and such related initiatives whether in small scale or large scale , towards environmental sustainably should be encouraged.
