How we can become a ... If our (The United States) goal is to be a "Zero Waste Nation " - we can start by following what Sweden is doing with their garbage.

In Sweden only 1% of the trash goes into landfills.

These are some of the categories you'll find that we cover. I believe that if it has to do with recycling...[it] should all be on one web-site, all in the same place.   I found while doing research that it is hard to find some of the super cool stuff that is out there, made from recycled items. I found out it's not that easy to catch the recycle bug. I'm not talking about recycling bottle and cans, that's all fine a dandy and yes if you are doing that please keep on doing that, it does help. You can even go to the extent of living in an environment friendly home and driving an environment friendly car. Why am I doing what I do? I believe the easier it is for consumers like you to find items made by recycling manufactures and artists. The more those manufactures will sell, the more they sell their products, the more the prices will come down. Making those initially pricey products more mainstream. That everyone will be able to afford them, this will even out

Courtesy of Tv show - Flea Market Flip Nothing is too big or too small to recycle. We believe in working hard, selling hard but with a soft gentle caring touch.

We have to attack this problem head on and put this problem front and center.  Not hiding it, and making believe that it doesn't exist. That's why we are here drawing you this very ugly picture. Because if you get involve and get on board, we can make a dent and help to create a chain-reaction and will eventually slow down the growth of one of these Gyres. I'm a firm believer than the only reason that these Gyres have gotten so big, so gigantic is because not enough people are aware that they even exist. . We are not about just having fun while creating art, at TheRealCycle.com, but we are here also to try to inform people of this crisis... way too much garbage.  Just one of these Gyre (circular patch of mostly plastic debris) is the size of the state of Texas. That equals to 700,000 square kilometres or 270,000 square miles. And there are at least five Gyres in the ocean. They are in the South Atlantic, North Atlantic, North Pacific, South Pacific

What better journey is there when you're doing it for a good cause and when you're pleasantly surprised with t
