The City of Tucson is making progress toward its 2050 Zero Waste goal with the help of two local businesses recycling glass and plastics. Bottle Rocket Design and Glassware collected glass from local bars to make one-of-a-kind housewares such as water dishes for pets, table lamps and planters. A curbside plastics recycling program partnered with ByFusion to convert plastic waste into an advanced building material being used to build benches in local parks.
