Recycling in Iowa Increases with Greenstar
Posted by: Brad Roderick
If recycling was as easy as taking out the trash would you be more willing to do it? Thanks to Greenstar, a company that aims to reduce emissions through recycling, it has never been easier. In Des Moines, IA citizens simply have to take their trash to the sidewalk and wait for trash pick-up. This trash is then taken to Greenstar where a machine separates recyclables from non-recyclables making recycling more efficient.
Here is a video from latimes.com about how Greenstar uses this machine to increase recycling in Iowa.
