Did You Know?
Californians bought more than 18.2 billion carbonated and non-carbonated drinks in aluminum, glass, plastic and bi-metal containers in 2003. More than 10.6 billion of those containers were recycled, saving natural resources, conserving energy and extending the life of our landfills. Now let's get working on the other 7.6 billion!
