Why Should I?
Why should YOU recycle?
When it comes to recycling, people often respond by saying 'Why should I?' and 'One person won't make a difference'
Well, in fact you would be wrong, YOU can make a difference.
One recycled tin can is enough to power a television for 3 hours, 1 recycled plastic bottle would save enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for 3 hours.
One tin can, One bottle.... That isn't so tough is it?
Think about it and help YOUR world become a better place. It's in our hands.

Imagine. If 100Million TONNES of Wood could be saved each year...
The average person uses 650lbs of paper each year.
This equates to the weight as an average Siberian Tiger.
FACT
100 Million tonnes of wood could be saved each year of all this paper was recylced.
This equates to the weight of a million Boeing 757 aircrafts.
FACT.

I just had to blog when I found these facts after doing further research on the recycling of cardboard last night. I found it fascinating when I then went on to find this youtube clip supporting my research. If we were all to recycle our paper and cardboard, including newpapers, packaging and waste paper we could make such a difference to, the environment, to our planet, and also to the lifestyles we lead.
FACT.
REDUCE. REUSE. RECYCLE.

Biggest ever recyclable artwork
http://www.edp24.co.uk/content/edp24/lifestyle/your-rubbish-your-choice/content/biggest-ever-recycable-artwork.aspx
An article that I found which I feel is a clever and inspiring way to gain interest about the facts of recycling specfically aluminium cans. Norfolk Environmental Waste Services has teamed up with super brand Coca Cola to create the world's biggest-ever recyclable artwork in the hope to encourage people to increase their recycling habits. The YouTube link at the bottom of the article, shows how the project was pieced together.

Viral Advert
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGT9cUmHhxE
I had to blog about this video when I came across it on you tube. I think its absolutely fantastic! In terms of a short to the point advert, I think it could be really effective. I really like the life line idea and how resources such as trees are quickly dieing out and the association that something can be done if we recycle now. It really creates a sense of urgency. Something which we could look to include in our own persuasive video. It is definitely an advert that people will remember, but would it make you stop, think and Recycle?
