"Incineration is inconsistent with reduction, re-use and recycling because it relies on a steady, large quantity of mixed waste. It is a superficial solution which does not attack the root of the problem
Recycling is a better option in terms of greenhouse gas emissions than incineration (even with energy recovery). A recent study for the European Commission found that separating waste at source followed by recycling (for paper, metals, textiles and plastics) and composting or anaerobic digestion (for putrescible wastes) gives the lowest net flux of greenhouse gases, compared with other options for the treatment of bulk municipal waste
The energy saved by recycling 1 plastic bottle will power a computer for 25 minutes.
Methane is about 21 times worse than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas.

Your products look fantastic.
One suggestion though...
The intention of the Blog doesnt come out clearly. Is it promoting awareness or the idea or the product.3 very different things tried to be tackled in a single blog .
The positioning of the slide show and the pictures you choose to display in the show can be rethought once you decide the objective of the blog .:))
