According to the 2017-2018 National Pet Owners Survey conducted by the American Pet Products Association, 68 percent of American households own a pet. This amounts to approximately 85 million families. The survey also found that the number of households with a dog far outweigh those with a cat, with 60 percent of households having a dog and just 47 percent having a cat. Overall, this same survey found that nearly 90 million dogs have a home in the United States, with Portland, Oregon being the city with the highest percent of dog ownership.

Improving Recycling Success with Standardized Labels
Posted by David Moore on
Many consumers are unaware that recycling in the United States is at risk. Despite efforts by some to collect recyclable materials, we are still falling short of collecting many materials that could be recycled or reused.

As a result, even those materials that are collected are often not recycled. At BearSaver, we are concerned about the impact that this might have on our environment.

In the state of California alone, more than 1000 recycling centers and processing plants have...

According to one study conducted by the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics, visitors to Boulder, Colorado’s Open Space, and Mountain Parks land leave behind approximately 60,000 pounds of waste each year.
