​

  • The energy saved from recycling a single plastic bottle can power a 100 watt light bulb for an hour

​

  • Recycling 1 ton of plastic frees up 7 cubic yards of landfill space

​

  • Recycling 1 pound of PET saves 12,000 BTU's, the same amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of 120 gallons of water by 100 degrees
