Items found Saturday, December 20, 2008

Recyclables:
  • 2 aluminum cans (1 Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, 1 roadkilled Budweiser)
  • 3 plastic bottles (all Deer Park water)

Reusables:
  • 2 small plastic bags

One of the Deer Park bottles listed above has a new label that made me laugh. It reads:



Smaller Labels = More Trees

We could write more on a bigger label, but saving trees is important. By keeping it short, we've saved almost 10 million lbs. of paper per year in the U.S.* - that's about 30,000 trees. Be Green.

*Versus our previous label




I find it mind boggling that Deer Park, which sells water in single use bottles, is claiming to be green. Does anyone really think of Deer Park as an eco-friendly company?
