The numbers #1-7 on plastics tell us a lot and can help us be better recyclers. I will learn more about what the symbols on plastics mean.

Contamination makes the recycling process more difficult. I will review which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my county and recycle only those items. 

I will learn about what different descriptions and marketing terms mean when used on plastics.

Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 2 plastic bags per day bringing them to a drop-off or special pickup

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polyvinyl, polystyrene and polycarbonate (#3,#6 and #7).
