Recycling Styrofoam
Do you know how long it takes for Styrofoam to actually biodegrade? I’m guessing it takes a long time. So what do you do with it? After all, there are plenty of those lying around. And it seems like the landfills cannot take anymore of those. I mean, they sure have got a lot already.
A solution on how to recycle Styrofoam popped from the Computer Recycling Center at Springfield. John Missildine is the general manager for this place and he said, “We thought and thought and thought of it. And then the actual solution was very, very simple. We use it for exactly the same purpose. It is used for packing material.”
Very simple, right? What they do is they shred those huge chunks of Styrofoam and they use them again to pack things. So it is reused and the number of waste Styrofoam in landfills is going down.
Great creative juices if you ask me.
