Bulls and Recycling... what a wonderful fit.

Well one of the requirements of being a member of the Etsy Blogger Street Team is you have to blog... Well that makes perfect sense. Each week we are given a theme to blog about. I figured I would be able to work reducing, reusing or recycling into the blog theme that way I could stay true to my theme and the weekly theme of the blogging street team, especially with next Tuesday, April 22, being Earth Day.

This weeks theme is a difficult one. The theme is "bull", anything to do with bull. I could have gone for BS, but that would have been an easy out and that type of blog in The Crayon Squiggle doesn't fit. So I did some research and found that the Elmer glue company (Elmer is the name of the bull that is the mascot/logo for Elmer's Glue) launched a recycling program to recycle glue bottles and glue stick containers through a program called The Elmer's Glue Crew Recycling Program. This program works with students and teachers through a classroom-based glue bottle and glue stick recycling program with web-based support. Each year more than 40 million students use Elmer's brand school glue and glue sticks. This is a program that shows students how to recycle something they use in the classroom and at home. Another great opportunity to educate our youth about the importance of doing their part to help preserve our natural resources. For more information check it out at The Elmer's Glue Crew Recycling Program.

Not an easy tie-in "Bulls" and recycling but i think it works. Joe and Aleethea thank you for the challenge. It was a nice change of pace researching a "bull" and recycling connection.

Happy recycling,
Andy
