Can You Recycle Bottle Caps?

Kathy L. 4 years ago

I save the caps for someone who says they use them for Buddy Benches for Schools, but I need more info on the right caps to save. Your comments would be appreciated. KL

You're right, they are so small, it's hard to see the impact they have on our environment. I've heard that you can recycle a plastic bottle cap if it is attached to the bottle it came with. Is that true? I didn't know that bottle caps created that much of a problem. I have never seen the importance of recycling until now! I will be careful now to always recycle my bottle caps. My boyfriend will be grateful. She always gets after me to be more environmentally friendly. I've just never seen why it's a problem until this article spelled it out for me. My boyfriend will be able to tell me where I can go to recycle my bottles and other things. <a href='http://www.ezimetal.com.au/plasticjoiners' > http://www.ezimetal.com.au/plasticjoiners</a>

I have used them for crafts. I made a checker board game out of them. Also I have used them to teach our pets to retrieve and exercise.
