Recycle it!

To many people are not helping the green movement. Did you know that the recycling started almost four decades ago? We often see the universally recognized symbol for for recycling. But did you know the history behind it? Actually there was a design competition held at the University of Southern California where a young graphic designer Gary Anderson enter his design. It was based on the Mobius strip (a shape with only one side and no end). Today it is world renown symbol for recycling.
At Zazzle who are know for world famous brand segmented on the environment produced lots of design elements that are "earth" friendly. For example this recycle t-shirt is designed to showcase the "go green" attitude. Here is an interesting piece of data from Recycling: Good for the Economy, Good for the Environment. "Recycling a ton of 'waste' has twice the economic impact of burying it in the ground. In addition, recycling one additional ton of waste will pay $101 more in salaries and wages, produce $275 more in goods and services, and generate $135 more in sales than disposing of it in a landfill." Makes you think twice about doing your part doesn't it?
