- Reduce: If every worker in the United States did this, we could save twenty-five million plastic forks, knives and chopsticks per day--enough utensils for three square meals a day for everyone in New York City.
- Reuse: In 2006, it took more than 17 million barrels of oil (excluding the oil used in transporting the plastic) to produce plastic bottles.
- Recycle: If one in every ten Americans bought a vintage garment instead of a new one, the energy saved could fly every resident of Hollywood to New York City for Fashion Week.
