initiative, which is in its fourth year and which seem to be gaining momentum with each passing Halloween. This year, the program has added trick or treat bags that double as a way to recycle spooky waste.You request a trick or treat bag from the Mars website and they mail it to you for free. You collect your candy in the bag and then use it to store any and all candy wrappers you and your family collect during your candy massacre.
“Rubicon shares Mars’ commitment to creating a more sustainable future and we are proud to expand our Trick or Trash program this Halloween alongside one another,” said Nate Morris, Chairman and CEO of Rubicon, in the same release.
Who’s to say if the carbon imprint required to mail the candy to the recycling facility cancels out recycling the wrappers, but let’s leave that thought for another day. It seems like Mars and Rubicon are tackling a significant problem and in a way that’s not a cost to customers., the first run of bags sold out in less than a day and the second run of bags sold out in less than an hour — and the most recent run was released yesterday and they’re already gone.
