 | | Artistic Recycling 3: Plastic Bottles | | by Paula Mitchell Bentley, Sep 27, 2008 | | About 23% of plastic water bottles are recycled. This leaves an astounding 38 billion water bottles in landfills. It takes over 1.5 million barrels of oil to manufacture a year's supply of bottled water. That's enough to fuel 100,00 cars for a year. The popularity of recycling, reducing, and reusing has increased in recent years. These methods can help to reduce the amount of wasted oil and landfill space. | | Comments(2) Liked It: 9 |
