America's Green Credentials Given a Huge Boost
New York, NY, May 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Vyouz entrepreneurs are back with a whole range of free websites to encourage the reuse of unwanted items. The ever-increasing network of green websites has been likened to the “Facebook of reusing and recycling” because of the enormous social networking opportunity it provides.
However, the key aim of their websites is the prevention of unnecessary landfill and the saving of the planet’s resources.
The Vyouz Network which was founded in 2004, has evolved to include no less than seven thriving websites based on the virtual dumpster concept. For example, BornRecycling.com allows parents with babies and young children to swap their baby items online while DropDeadGreen.com allows you to exchange your unwanted clothing and fashion accessories.
The challenge of what to do with consumer electronics when they become obsolete or replaced with a newer item is addressed by GadgetCycle.com, while SparePartsRecycling.com allows you to give away, swap or locate parts of items that would otherwise be scrapped and thrown away, giving a new lease of life to broken products.
For those involved in education, StudentCycle.com provides a social networking platform for students and teachers to swap books, computers and even student accommodation. Also of interest to schools will be TrashCycle.com where actual rubbish such as yoghurt pots, milk bottle tops and egg boxes is offered for others to search and claim as materials for craft projects.
It’s also a great place for charities and fundraisers to find items such as aluminium cans, newspapers and used stamps, which can be recycled into cash for a good cause.
Meanwhile, the latest project is CabbageEggs.com designed to promote the use of locally grown produce and encourage swapping of items such as vegetables, eggs and even homemade wine and beer.
When asked what the future holds for their Vyouz Network, the guys involved said: “We’ve got lots more eco ideas we want to develop including a local transport sharing scheme and GivAid.org – a charitable project to help people find assistance in times of need.
We’re really very excited, so watch this space.”
