We're celebrating #EarthMonth by reimagining how we recycle and improving the ways in which we do. We're following along with Keep America Beautiful and the Ad Council's award-winning "I Want To Be Recycled" public service advertising (PSA) and awareness campaign to uncover the top 5 impacts of recycling.
Imagine a plastic bottle becoming a pair of jeans or a steel food can that transforms into a bicycle. Can you see it? Each day we have the choice to recycle or not. When we place our everyday items in the appropriate recycling bins, we’re “giving our garbage another life” – a chance at becoming something new and helping our environment at the same time.

Your aluminum can, water bottle, or cereal boxes can actually become many things in this amount of time. Check out the key steps that materials go through to become new products.
