Brita To Take Back Brita Filter Cartridges for Recycled Use
Taking into account the call to utilize its current mold of filter cartridges, Brita has taken such into consideration and has announced that all recycling pitcher filters will taken back by January 2009.
A careful study revealed that the standard plastic cartridge of Brita can be further put to good use, lowering the probability of adding to the plastic waste problem and yet be surrendered for future use.
the campaign started a petition to urge Clorox to redesign its Brita filter cartridges so that the plastic housing can be refilled, rather than discarded, each time the filter is changed; provide a take-back program; and create a system for the cartridges to be dismantled and for the components to be recycled or reused domestically.
