So Our Children Can Play Tomorrow. Every week your office recycles its paper and cans. It makes you feel good to know all that material is being saved. That depends on you. If there's a market for recycled products, each item you bring back will be used to make new merchandise.
Many recycled products are competitive, but some do cost more than unrecycled ones.
However, higher costs are almost always the result of a weak market. When your business and thousands like it begin buying recycled goods on a regular basis, the prices will drop. Someone's got to be a leader. We try to burn it and bury it and forget it. Recycling is one of the ways to solve the waste problem.
