The CAN House project promotes recycling to help stimulate the green economy while having some fun:
- A Sponsor picks a place and time and the house is built.
- We collect recycling CANs not cant’s
- Add a little CAN-do art work (Check out the flag below)
- And the benefactor receives the recycle donation.
The CAN House: Fourth of July Sertoma 2008, Pensacola, FL
For the 4th, we’ve added a 1KW solar panel (upper left) and some CAN art courtesy of the local Navy talent. Who says Coke, Pepsi, and Mountain Dew can’t get along: Check out that unity flag!
The Photo Voltaic solar panel was charging a battery that was then used to drive our can washing pump.
The CAN House: Memorial Day 2008, Pensacola Beach, FL
Welcome to Pensacola Beach Memorial Day 2008
Pensacola Beach – Memorial Day 2007
The problem: Traditionally, after the Memorial Day weekend, many hundreds if not thousands of pounds of perfectly good aluminum are carted off to the landfill trashing potential economic and ecologic profits.
The Solution: Build a house of CANS, fill it up with the empties, and after the party, donate the recycle income to a local church.
WHY?
Because We CAN!!
This year, Deep Green Technologies, llc and PleaseLITTER.com intend to divert this highly recycleable resource (Technical Nutrient) from the landfill waste stream into the technical resource stream–your next reduced price product.
The Profits (3BL) briefly:
- Economy - Aluminum is one of the most reusable Technical Nutrients we have cycling through our economy using only about 35% of the energy used for initial production. 65% off, Beat that sale
- Ecology – How much Landfill do our children need? A 65% reduction in energy use and the green house gases that go along with it. Extraction costs (not just expenses) ….
- Community – The CAN House project is designed to involve every body, create awareness and educate. We all benefit. And, when recycled, the Holy Cross Metropolitan Community Church (MCC) will receive the economic donation.
