EMI is applying for a grant from Pepsi Refresh. If it is funded it will bring a glass pulverizer to Miles City. Then glass can be crushed fine enough to be used for landscaping, road surfaces and counter tops. Please help by going to this link and voting for the project

Thank you for promoting this Beth!

This would be GREAT!! Again, thanks for the post.

Great idea. We need to recycle glass in this town, other than the wine bottles.

People can vote daily by signing up or via facebook.
Those who have text messaging can have an additional daily vote by texting 110778 to 73774.

****Additionally, for Pepsi drinkers, certain bottle caps have a code which you may enter on RefreshEverything.com. This will entitle you to more votes, anywhere from 5 to 100 additional votes, so please check your Pepsi bottle caps.

As of this morning Miles City is in 76th place out of 340 groups.
Please vote.

I think I voted but I don't know. I'll keep trying. Maybe it works.

Please vote. It's easy if you use facebook, but can be done without.

We need your vote daily!! Please help us win this grant from Pepsi?

Please vote today. Twice if you text.

This piqued my interest so I Googled the topic. Really amazing how it works and can make safe, rounded-edge glass for the landscaping. I never would have thought it could work yet amazed how nice it is once I saw it.

We're facing some tough competition but if we can keep voting and sharing the information it would be such a win-win situation for Miles City and EMI. Keep voting and sharing.

We are currently at 98 today. Please vote.

to vote by text, send 110778 to 73774. It's a little irritating you have to send a STOP message afterwards to block more messages from Pepsi, unless you want to get more messages from Pepsi that is.

We need your help, please vote today.

We went from 102 yesterday to 89 today. Keep voting folks. We can do this.

Yay! Keep It going!! I voted today, did you yet? Please help us win even if it''s just for the sake of winning! It will be a good thing and create more jobs for our challenged friends. Jim

We are at 80 this morning! Great work! Keep voting and spreading the word.

Wow, we are moving up in the standings, please vote each day.

We are 69 this morning. Great work! We went up 34 places in less than a week. Keep Voting!

We need to be in the top 10 to win!! Keep up the great response!!

Lost a spot today. #69

We are now in 68th place. Keep voting :-)

Gosh, We need to step it up to get into the top 10. Any ideas on how to spread the word? I'm borrowing someone else's phone to vote, maybe I can vote using someone else's email, of course with their permission.

#68

We need to get them to vote on their own phone! Every day!! Not just once, but once or twice a day!!
We are a little town compared to our competition, so we need to blast 'em. Jim

The system will only allow one vote per phone per day.
Perhaps a daily texting party at the office water cooler every morning at the coffee break?

Moving up!

#66

#65 Talk to any highschool students you know and ask them to text 110778 to 73774.

Still time to vote.

#60. We are moving down.

Voting ended yesterday. I couldn't get a final position for our Miles City project but I think it was close to #60. I guess we can chalk it up to education that we just don't have a big enough population to win these internet voting competitions. As a member of the EMI recycling board, I will be looking for other ways to finance glass recycling in Miles City. Any idea? Thanks for all your voting!
