Styrofoam•14 million metric tons annually•98% goes to landfill•70% goes to landfill within 12 months of use•Takes up 25-30% of all landfill space•98% air and only 2% plastic and does not degrade•Japan, Korea and Europe recycle as much as 60% of eps (styrofoam)

I see an opportunity for Sturgis to become a regional styrofoam recycling center which would:
•Benefit the environment•Create jobs Administrative, marketing of the service,
collection, processing and sales of finished product
• Could be a resource for local companies that produce plastic products
• Might act as a template/franchise opportunity for other communities interested in creating employment while helping the environment.

MOVING FORWARD•Further research to discover most viable, cost effective solutions•Development of sound business plan•In depth analysis of projected startup and operating cost for the first 2 years•Explore available funding/partnership resources •Meet with community leaders and business owners for further guidance and support
