Packaging, Taking it To Go, and Oil Addiction

Almost everything we buy comes in packaging of some kind, most of it made from plastics. When we purchase packaged items, we are producing waste and consuming oil. By selecting products with high percentages of post-consumer recycled content, we support municipal recycling. Choosing high products with high percentages of recycled content, which means that they use industrial waste, also reduces waste and natural resources use.

Together, we can stop oil addiction.

This call to action is from the Human Impacts Institute, NYC Climate Coalition and NYC Oil Addicts Anonymous.
