Reusable Solutions
Eradicating Single Use Plastic and Breaking Our Addiction to Fossil Fuels
Who We Are
Reusable Solutions is an outreach organization that focuses on eradicating single use plastic and climate change through business promotion and influencing environmental policy. We believe that innovative business and smart environmental policy are the most effective means to transition from a linear to a circular economy. Our planet depends on it. Part of this transition is connecting reusable and renewable businesses with consumers through a community-based, grassroots process.
Our Programs
VT Can Carrier Reuse Program
Reusable Solutions has teamed up with Eco Friendly Beer Drinker to bring this initiative to fruition. The idea is simple, bring your can carriers back to a participating brewery or retailer. They will either reuse them, donate them to another brewery that reuses. The pilot program started in November of 2021 with 10 breweries and reused over 10,000 in a 2 month period. Thanks to support from Lawsons Finest Liquids, SunCommon Solar and Mascoma Bank we have expanded to 47 collection locations and plan to bring the number up to 60 in the state of Vermont.
Look for the below in your local brewery or beer store to drop off your carriers. To read more about the initiative check out the press release here. https://ecofriendlybeer.com/11-new-locations-joining-vermonts-can-carrier-reuse-program/
