Petition text:
We, the undersigned, urge The Clorox Company to take responsibility for the millions of plastic filter cartridges that are landfilled or incinerated each year by:
1) Redesigning its Brita filter cartridges so that the plastic housing can be refilled rather than discarded each time the filter is changed.
2) Providing a take-back program, such as the one that exists in Europe, so that used cartridges can be returned to the company for recycling.
3) Creating a system for the cartridges to be dismantled and the components recycled/reused domestically rather than landfilled, incinerated, or shipped overseas.
