For years I have tried to recycle any clean, but used packing materials sent to our family. Today, I went to Fed Ex and the employee told me "sorry, we can only use new packing stuff". In this day of over-consumption, pollution, excess waste this is innappropriate it and unneeded.
All individuals and businesses should be doing everything possible to not create excess consumption and waste....for the health of our future world.
Dear Federal Express --
Today, I tried to recycle clean but already used packing materials -- packing peanuts (styrofoam) and bubble wrap.
In this time of over-consumption, excess waste, increasing pollution, and climate change it is unthinkable that you would not allow recycling of clean packaging materials, reduction of waste and the benefits of doing this in helping our world remain healthy.
We the undersigned strongly encourage you to re-think this policy and begin to allow, and encourage, recycling and re-use of clean pre-used materials.
Sincerely,
We the Undersigned Care2 members
