We just heard from our friends at Save that Stuff about the impact of our recycling/composting efforts so far this year. Here are some fun facts!
From 1/1/2009 to 7/31/2009 we have saved: 162 adult trees 54 cubic yards of landfill space
44,831 kilowatts of electricity or 26 barrels of oil
And we’ve reduced our Carbon Footprint by 10.63 Metric Tons of Carbon Equivalent, which is equal to removing 8 Cars from the roadway each year.
