Recycling Project
Ink Cartridges should not be thrown away, but to be put into the hands of 53rd St
Barnabas Scout Group. It takes almost 450 years for one ink cartridge to
decompose, thus having a very damaging effect on the environment. This is only
one of many reasons to recycle ink cartridges.
The company that is helping us is Cartridge World, they'll pay us 2 euros for
every re-usable Laser cartridge and 1 euro for every re-usable ink cartridge. So if
we work together we could raise enough money to help a charity group by buying
needed equipment at the end of the year.
The Explorers, will be a tour around Cartridge World, watching how they recycle
and refill the Cartridges and so learn why we have to dispose cartridges properly
in order to NOT LANDFILL BUT REFILL .
