SUMMARY:Evening Briefing: Recycling – What are the Basics?
DESCRIPTION:Can I recycle the cap on a plastic water bottle? Are black plastic food trays recyclable? Do I still need to tie up my newspapers? We all know that recycling means separating out paper\, plastic\, glass and metal from our trash. But understanding the fundamentals of recycling is what helps us make informed decisions on what and how we sort. Learn how “aspirational recycling” can actually be detrimental to the recycling process. Liz Sweedy of Morris County MUA\, our recycling expert\, will sort the myths from the facts about the ins and outs of recycling and pass along this knowledge to you\, so you can share with others. Light snacks will be served. Registration required.
