gmail's trash

i love the fact that every time when you're in gmail's trash folder, every refresh button clicked will show you random facts of recycling, these are some that i manage to get hold of

- Plastic bags can be reused as bin liners or package stuffing.
- Recycled plastic bottles can be made into rugs, jackets, fences and more.
- Rubber shoe soles can be recycled to make basketball courts and soccer fields.
- Recycled paper takes about 60% less energy and water to make than new paper.
- Empty tissue boxes can provide easy and handy storage for plastic grocery bags.
- Recycled glass bottles can be made into roads, tiles, even surfboards.
- Newspapers can be reused as wrapping paper for gifts.
- Film canisters can be reused to store nails, screws, buttons and pins.
- Unneeded printouts can be cut and stapled to make notepads.
- Recycled cans can be made into airplanes, appliances, furniture and more.
- Recycling a 3-foot-high stack of newspapers can save one whole tree.
- There is no limit to the number of times an aluminum can can be recycled.
- Recycled paper takes about 60% less energy and water to make than new paper.
- You can make a lovely hat out of previously-used aluminum foil.
- Junk mail and newspaper can be reused as package stuffing.

everyone should really start recycling, and stop using polystyrene, use lesser plastic bags and turn to eco friendly products
