          Styrofoam is toxic, and it doesn’t break down in the environment,
but it can be recycled; a pound of polystyrene recycled is a pound
of new polystyrene that doesn't have to be created.
Here are some recyclers that accept Styrofoam:

Another idea is to ask your local craft shop or near-by school if they
will take your Styrofoam to use in craft projects.
