United Recyclers Group Giving Out Auto Recycling Coloring Books To Qualified Grade Schools
    DENVER, April 14 United Recyclers Group, LLC, a
Partnership of over 350 Auto Recyclers across the United States and Canada,
and their Corporate Offices located in Denver, Colorado, celebrate Earth Day
on April 22, 2000.  In following with the URG tradition, the company will
again distribute their auto recycling coloring books to qualified grade
schools.
    The coloring book, entitled, "What happens to cars after they are
wrecked," shows the life of a car and what happens to it after it has been
wrecked in a car accident.  This informative 18 page coloring booklet, gives
the student a better understanding about how the auto recycling industry
recycles over 11 million vehicles each year and the responsibility that the
recycling industry has in saving the Planet Earth.
    "Auto Recyclers play a very important role in preserving the planet
earth," said Sharon Kellum, United Recyclers Group Business Manager.  "As
recyclers we feel we have a duty to educate the public on the importance of
auto recycling, and how it just makes sense to recycle automobiles."
    The coloring book also has a glossary of terms that are often used in the
auto recycling industry, along with some informative information on other
forms of recycling that can be done to help save the environment.  The
coloring booklet is available on a limited basis, and given out to accredited
K-3 schoolteachers (30 booklets per teacher only) in the United States and
Canada.  The booklets can also be downloaded off of the World Wide Web at
http://www.u-r-g.com.
