Fab Facts
54 million inkjet cartridges are thrown away every year - It
takes 1000 years for each one to decompose in landfill
If 1% of the estimated 60 million unused mobile phones were
recycled we could plant 300,000 trees – an incredible 400
football pitches
Since 2001 the Trust has recycled 294,396,418 Christmas
cards. Placed end to end these would reach from London to
New York City ten times over. |
