1. Return bottles and cans to a recycling depot.
Go to any Return-It depot to recycle your bottles, cans, or jugs. You will get the money back that you paid at the point of purchase for the deposit, and you can get rid of a lot of material that may just go into your garbage. This reduces the need for more plastics, conserving resources and reduces the amount of plastic in the environment.
