Water rocketry's main principle is the re-using of an empty pop bottle, which is easily recycled.

The fuel that it uses consists of the same air that we breathe, and fresh water that we drink.

The plastic rocket parts and launcher are almost all themselves recyclable, being made of PET and PLA.

The packaging we use for shipping the rocket to you is made of cardboard and paper with no glossy inks or printed surfaces, for ease of recycling.

All brochures and instructions are distributed as paperless PDF files from the website to minimize paper usage and waste. You only use paper for exactly the pages you need.

And perhaps most importantly, the activity of launching water rockets gets you outdoors into the sunshine and fresh air, away from computers, video games, big screen TVs and job stress, and provides an excellent opportunity for positive intergenerational interaction between family, friends and neighbors.
