We will recycle old jeans to cut down on landfill waste. We plan to make them into coffee cozies. This will cut down on the need for the paper ones you get at coffee shops. It will also cut down on emissions from the machines that make paper into cozies. To get the word out, we will try to have them sold at local coffeeshops and possibly the zoo. We plan to have an assembly and/or talk to pre-k classes to spread the word about polar bears. To raise money, we will sell eco-friendly wristbands with a polar bear slogan. We also plan to sell polar bear t-shirts.
