Recycling plastic peanuts


If you receive a shipment packed in plastic peanuts, locate a shipping company in your area that will take them off your hands. The Plastic Loose Fill Council operates a searchable online database and a toll-free number so anyone can find the closest drop-off location where leftover plastic packing peanuts are reused.

Time consuming


Supporting environmental causes means giving up time I don't have (e.g., volunteering and writing lots of letters). Today's busy student, professional or caregiver doesn't need to lead campaigns and construct manifestos to have their opinions counted. The Internet has made it easier than ever to acquire timely information on actionable issues and send pre-written letters of support or protest that target decision makers. Organizations working on a range of issues from environmental protection to corporate and government accountability are enabling people to take action from the privacy of their home or office with very little time spent. Anyone with access to a computer and the Internet can sign petitions and send letters to decision makers just by going online. It's never been simpler to participate in influencing environmental policy.
