Ok, if you’re reading this article, the chances are you are already convinced about the merits of recycling your printer ink cartridges. You know that hp ink recycling isn’t just good for the environment; it’s also incredibly fast and easy, thanks to Hewlett Packard’s own recycling program as well as several similar programs run by non-profit ecology groups across the nation. Clearly, then, there’s no excuse not to recycle your used up ink cartridges! But how to convince those that aren’t quite as earth-friendly as you are?

We all have them: those friends, neighbors or family members who might pay pretty good lip service to environmental protection, but when it comes to their own daily routine, are only too happy to just toss environmentally noxious products like ink cartridges straight into the trash without another moment’s thought. Or maybe they don’t even do so much as pay “lip service” to environmental protection, but really and truly don’t care.

This can be infuriating for those of us who really do care about the environment and know how important it is to recycle ink cartridges; especially when it’s so incredibly easy to do so. So how can you convince the naysayers, the ignorant or the simply lazy? There are a couple of strategies you can try out to get people to do the responsible thing.

First, remember not to get preachy and high-and-mighty with the offending person; this can be an incredible turn-off and will not motivate anyone to change their ways. Instead, be proactive and offer to recycle their cartridges for them. If they reply that they wouldn’t want you to go the trouble, explain why it is absolutely no trouble for you at all. They’ll either let you do it, or realize how simple the task is and recycle the cartridges themselves, so it’s a win-win situation. You can also try launching a big group event, like a mass collection of cartridges, at a local school or community organization, to help raise awareness about ink recycling and its importance.
