USPS Post Office Box Lobby Recycling program : ウィキペディア英語版 | USPS Post Office Box Lobby Recycling program
The Post Office Box Lobby Recycling program is a project of the United States Postal Service (USPS) that was created on October 28, 2008, for consumers to recycle paper items, using recycling bins placed in the customer lobbies of post office buildings.〔〔 Noted: "program launched here today builds on the tremendous success of similar programs that have been ongoing".〕 Some of the goals of the program are to reduce the amount of paper waste going to landfills, which helps to reduce the consumption of fiber from trees used for paper production and greenhouse gas emissions associated with waste disposal.〔 USPS receives revenue from selling the material, and no tax dollars are used to fund the project.〔 USPS was reported as having recycled over 200,000 tons of waste in 2009, including paper, plastics and other waste.〔 ==Participation== Some U.S. post offices do not participate in the program, and sometimes recycle paper items independently of the program, in bins in their employee work areas. Some reasons for non-participation include building space constraints and limited personnel at some U.S. post offices.〔 At some post offices, mail received that is undeliverable is recycled.〔 Some U.S. post offices (as of 2010) do not recycle whatsoever.〔
