most recycling is just a profit marker for the companies and actually causes more pollutants and waste in the process. paper is renewable, there are tree farms for it. this makes me think of the penn and teller bulls**t episode where people just happily agreed to have multiple and more and more recycle bins outside their homes to sort out.

They should do that in California! :)

They should do it everywhere. All wal-mart stores.

I'm surprised, quite frankly, that California ISN'T leading the way on this!

If they are the first to do it, how are they jumping on the bandwagon?

According to the article itself:
"TerraCycle has previously trialed collection systems for multiple waste streams at Home Depot, Petco, OfficeMax and Best Buy stores."
