At this weekend’s Daytona 500, Coca-Cola debuted the trailer to encourage fans to recycle plastic bottles. Every container donated resulted in a donation from Coca-Cola to the NASCAR Foundation.

Coca-Cola has been promoting recycling with several organizations recently, including the National Recycling Coalition and RecycleBank. The company has made it a goal to recycle 100 percent of its containers in the near future.
