It's just not enough anymore to recycle your bottles after you are done with them. I know that you've all been doing great by recycling your bottles, however did you know that after it's been picked up from your house and goes to the recycle plant, bottles with caps left on them are separated from the ones without? This extra step is time consuming and costly. The caps have to be removed because the type of plastic that is used to make them is different? I know!!!! Furthermore some recycle plants don't even recycle the caps! I know!!!! And it's not just water bottle caps but ALL CAPS like soda, milk, shampoo, toothpaste, and juice caps. What should we do now you ask? It's a different type of plastic that is harder to recycle. It wasn't brought to light before because they were still just trying to get people to recycle but now it's a problem. As I mentioned in a previous post (read more here) Aveda wants to help with that. I love it when a big corporation does it's part to help the environment. They collect the caps and uses the recycle material in it's new packaging. I love the idea. Click on the link to find out what caps can and cannot be recycled with them and how and where to bring them.
So what can you do? When you recycle a anything with a cap, remove the cap, that's the very least. If you want to take it a step further collect all the caps separately. Then bring them to an Aveda location near you. One or two extra steps by you can go a long way. So you know what I'm gonna say now, what are you gonna do?

I actually find that few people know about this. I save my bottle caps along with help from some of my family and I drop them off at an Aveda salon or you can mail them out to Aveda.
