Container and Packaging Recycling Update - Volume XV No. 1 - Spring 2007

CRI’s Web sites getting more
than 45,000 unique visits a month

by Valerie Hoy, CRI Webmaster

CRI’s Web sites are a valuable resource to policymakers, lawmakers, recycling activists, recycling businesses, students, teachers, reporters and editors. Both of our Web sites contain a wealth of information including resources found within them—graphs, statistics, news articles, slideshows, and more.

Our bottlebill.org site has chronicled the progress of several deposit law campaigns, keeping track of bill numbers, sponsors and publicity events, and collecting news articles across the United States, and around the world.

In recent weeks, the sites have seen the addition of a few new PowerPoint presentations on the benefits of bottle bills and bottle bill expansion. Additionally, all of CRI’s publications, including our popular Trashed Cans and The 10¢ Incentive to Recycle, are now available as free downloads on container-recycling.org, making valuable recycling and conservation information more readily available to the public.

CRI’s Web sites continue to grow as vital resources on the Internet.
Bottlebill.org is now receiving 530 visits per day (a 55% increase over six months ago), and container-recycling.org receives nearly 1100 visits per day, (a 30% increase in the past six months).
