PURCHASE, N.Y., May 29, 2019 /3BL Media/ -- PepsiCo Recycling today announced that, through the Recycle Rally – a free program designed to educate and instill recycling behaviors at K-12 schools across the United States –nearly 10 million pounds of waste material was diverted from landfills在2018-19学年。自2010年推出以来，Recycle Rally促进了collections of close to 500 million recyclable containers.

参加回收集会的学校参加了年度回收竞赛，以及收集最可回收能力的最可持续发展资金或其他重要项目的学校。金博宝怎么注册今年，Arnold小学in San Antonio, Texas, andO'Connell College Preparatory School在得克萨斯州的加尔维斯顿，加大了回收收藏，成为两个竞争联盟中表现最好的学校。

"We're thrilled to be one of this year's Recycle Rally winners, but the most exciting thing about Recycle Rally is how it enables sustainable change for the long term," said Paul Perea, teacher and Recycle Rally leader at Arnold Elementary. "We plan to invest the $50,000 we won through the program in new green initiatives, and we are currently looking into an aquaponics system to create fertilizer out of fish waste and a van to support beach clean-ups in the community."

"The success of Recycle Rally shows that if we can create an environment where children feel empowered to recycle – and educated to recycle properly – they will go the extra mile to ensure their empty cans or bottles don't end up in a landfill," said Tom Mooradian, Manager of Environmental Sustainability at PepsiCo. "It's about normalizing recycling behaviors at the earliest possible age so they become second nature. Our goal is that these children will change the status quo and help make our vision of a circular economy a reality."

Recycle Rally现在活跃于6,000多所K-12学校，为解决美国回收教育的差距至关重要的资金和资源至关重要。

目前，有62％的美国人担心缺乏知识会导致他们错误地回收^1,所有回收中的25％被污染²- often due to consumer misunderstanding about how to sort recyclables.
