The Christmas Recyclometer

I wrote a post a while ago about the Coca-Cola Recyclometer and the Plant Bottle which you can read here. Basically, as part of their ongoing work at looking into ways of reducing waste and promoting recycling, the team at Coca-Cola have spent months tirelessly collecting facts and figures to give us a tool which makes it easier to recycle.

Lets face it, some of us recycle without thinking about it, some of us (I include myself here), try to recycle and usually remember but aren’t exactly the most savvy when it comes to what you can and what you can’t recycle, and where.

The original Recyclometer is packed full of fantastic info and is a very interactive tool. Kieran loves it.

Being festive people, the team have given the Recyclometer a Christmas makeover so you now see where you can recycle items used more frequently in the winter months, and how much energy each item saves!

It’s well worth a visit, it’s a great tool for the kids (who if they are anything like my eldest, know much more the envirnment and recycling than I do!) but is also suitable for the rest of the household. It makes things easier, it tells us what we need to know and more so there is no excuse not to use our recycling services to the full.

Slightly off topic, many of you, like myself see the Coca-Cola truck and see this as the marker for the beginning of the festive season. When I was told that the lovelies from Coca-Cola had also produced a fun festive quiz I was confident I would ace it. Apparently not!!

Have some fun and give it a go and see how you get on!*

*If you get them all right the first time, please don’t feel like you need to tell me, it’ll just make me feel worse!

Coca-Cola have really pulled out the stops with this tool which covers much more than I can write about, have a visit and enjoy using the easy to navigate Christmas Recyclometer.
