ConservAmerica Joins Coalition in Support of Recycling Refund Program

ConservAmerica has joined a coalition of supporters in favor of Recycling Refund programs. Recycling refunds, also known as beverage container redemption programs, deposit return systems, and “bottle bills,” are programs that place a fully refundable deposit (such as 5-10 cents) on beverage containers made from different materials like aluminum, glass, plastics, and others. Consumers pay that deposit at the time of purchase, and when they are done with the empty beverage containers, they can return them to a convenient redemption option to obtain their refund. Consumers essentially buy the beverage and borrow the container – receiving their refund when they recycle. Recycling refunds are a convenient and effective way for consumers to support recycling.
