Do you use Brita water filters to purify your tap water or know someone who does? Have you ever wondered what happens to all the used plastic filter cartridges at the end of their lives?

If you lived in Europe, you could take that filter to a drop-off location where it would be sent back to Brita for recycling.

Each plastic cartridge is either landfilled or incinerated, adding to the toxic waste that is already choking our planet.
