- Organizations in the United States and United Kingdom continue to concoct clever ways to convince their citizens that recycling is worthwhile.
In England, a new behavior change campaign is trying to reinforce that every little bit helps: If every Londoner recycled one extra plastic bottle a week for a year, enough energy would be saved to power Wembley Stadium for two years – a venue that can hold 90,000 people.
