These days, there are so many things in our lives that are powered by a battery. But did you know that it is illegal to just throw them away in New York State?
If you've purchased a six-pack of beer in the last 30 years, you know they stay together with a handy plastic ring. The plastic that you know is going away on Labatt cans.
In New York, we can get 5 cents for returning a recyclable can or bottle. But what do you do with your cans and recyclable bottles when you don't care to take them back?
It's amazing to me that people will find a new word for something that we've been doing for years. Although this one sounds funny...I think it's a good idea.
