Recycle at Home

Earth Day Network — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 20:22:19 +0000

Many countries provide their citizens the means to separate their home garbage into recyclables like glass, metal, plastic, paper and organic waste. Some, like Germany, began many years ago, and have sophisticated sorting, such as separating clear glass from green and amber. Others, such as Bulgaria, have come to it more recently, and are still ramping up their recycling infrastructure. Still others, like India, have a complex, informal recycling sector that provides a livelihood for millions of people, up to 1% of its urban population.

Use Public Transport

Earth Day Network — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 18:55:53 +0000

Globally, the U.S. lags behind Europe-Middle East-Africa and Asia-Pacific in the availability and use of public transportation. In fact, those two regions account for a staggering 85 percent of worldwide traffic mass transit ridership. The EMEA and AP geographic regions claim nine of the 10 largest subway systems (in terms of annual ridership), which on their own represent nearly 40 percent of the worldwide market. Moscow and Tokyo operate the largest subway systems, with 8.8 million and 7.4 million daily passengers, respectively.
