Green Tip of the Day

FOOD WRAP

Unlike plastic wrap and waxed paper, you can buy 100% recycled aluminum foil and recycle it in most areas. Plastic wrap and waxed paper are made from petroleum and some contain carcinogenic PVC.

Earth911 - type in aluminum foil and your zip to find out if you can recycle it locally (note: while it usually doesn't have to be spotless, clean big chunks of food off of it before putting it in the bin).
