random green tip action

Donate your old footwear to a reuse or recycling program - Image courtesy of http://www.nikereuseashoe.com/images/homepage-slideshow/1-home.jpg?1254758379
Donate your old footwear to a reuse or recycling program
Drop off your shoes at your nearest Nike store (even if they're not their brand), and they'll give them to those in need, or recycle them for use on playgrounds and sports equipment. There are many other organizations that will take shoes that still have life in them, and give them to those in need. The bottom line is that you delay or prevent them from getting into the landfill.
