According to a study done by the University of Georgia, 18 billion pounds of plastic trash winds up in our oceans each year. Just to put that into perspective, it’s enough trash to cover every foot of coastline around the world with five full trash bags of plastic…compounding every year The United States recycling rate is around 34.5% right now. If we’re able to get the rate up to 75%, the effect will be like removing 50 million cars from United States roads. The United States alone throws away $11.4 billion worth of recyclable containers and packaging every year. Just think about the sheer amount of money we throw away and the serious harm that it does to our environment. That's why i'm encouraging everyone to recycle. I'm starting my own business where I will give you a recycle bin to fill up through out the week. I will then come pick up your recyclables free of charge. I will make money by recycling all the free plastic that others were just going to throw away. I'm making money and saving the planet at the same time. Let me know how my delivery was in this elevator pitch.
That is the link to my YouTube video.
