    I've only had one person take me up on recycling their contacts and the packaging it comes in!! You could be getting points every day if you wear daily contacts (Personal Care-See the Green challenge).  Drop your contacts off at my desk or start your own box at home and get the points! The shipping label is free when you go on the website. Also, think about suggesting it during your next eye exam to your provider.

    Hi Team!
    I signed up to recycle my contact lenses and the packaging it comes in.  I figured I would keep a box at the zoo to collect a bunch instead of us sending individual boxes. If you bring them in, I'll have a box at my desk for you to drop it off.  I'll make sure to send it out by the end of this month.
