TerraCycle has the right idea! Making useful and interesting stuff from our trash is certainly not new. Anyone who has had grandma make a quilt or managed a household repair using the "wrong" part has been part of this process. The innovation at TerryCycle is from the community involvement and the volume of the projects they attempt. My hope is that they will be a huge financial success and that will prompt others to reconsider what is trash and what can be re-done.
