Recycling one glass bottle (vs. creating a new one) can save enough energy to power a T.V. for 1.5 hours.
More than one ton of natural resources is conserved for every ton of glass recycled. This includes- 1,300 pounds of sand, 410 pounds of soda ash, 380 pounds of limestone, and 160 pounds of feldspar
For every 6 tons of glass recycled = 1 ton of CO2 not being put in the atmosphere.
