Recycled Shopping Bags Sales Explode

by Ashley Schiller

EverybodyGreen’s new tote bags made from recycled plastic bottles have been selling at an “explosive rate” according to PR Web.

The reusable bags feature a stylish pear design. They are available online and in some retail stores as of July 14. Sales of the Recycled Pear Bag have exceeded company expectations, according to Director Keith Berman.

EverybodyGreen.com donates proceeds from each sale to a selection of non-profit organizations, including Oceana, Earth Resource Foundation, The Clean Water Fund and Heal The Bay. The company goal is to donate $1 million by the end of 2008.

Use Earth 911 to recycle your plastic bottles.
