Using recycled PET plastic ♳ generates 59% fewer greenhouse gas emissions than virgin (new) PET. But we can't recycle what we don't collect.💡Learn why better #recycling means less waste, lower emissions, & stronger US manufacturing: positivelypet.org/blog/pet-rec... #PETForward #CircularEconomy

Infographic titled “PET Plastic Recycling Infrastructure is Climate Infrastructure” illustrating plastic bottles moving through collection, sorting, recycling, and manufacturing to become new recycled PET packaging: consumers return or recycle PET bottles; collection programs capture bottles; sorting facilities separate PET from other materials; reclaimers wash and process recovered PET; and manufacturers use recycled PET to make new bottles. Five circular photos surround a central recycling symbol, emphasizing how recycling infrastructure supports a circular economy. NAPCOR and Positively PET logos appear at the bottom.

♻️𝐏𝐄𝐓 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬! Recycling PET plastic (polyethylene terephthalate, look for the #1 in the triangle) is one of the biggest sustainability wins we have. To wit: 1/6 🧵 #PickPET #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #RecycleRight #PETIsNumber1 #RecyclingIsReal

Blue educational graphic from NAPCOR and Positively PET reading “LET US RECYCLE.” It features a classroom photo of a teacher with elementary students and the #1 PET resin identification symbol. Text explains that if each student recycled one PET plastic bottle per day (#1 in the triangle), a typical school would recycle about 432 bottles daily. Across 52,000 US elementary schools over a full school year, that would total 106 million pounds of recycled PET for new products, avoiding CO₂ emissions equal to burning 7 million gallons of gasoline.
