How Can I Help?

Recycling sometimes is difficult to understand. We can all help by ensuring everything we put into recycling bins is recyclable so "Don't Waste Your Efforts". The purpose of recycling is to ensure collected materials are used to make new products in an environmentally and cost-efficient manner. Recycling can also be done within your own home, like reusing jars again, and use ice cream containers for storage. By reusing and recycling we save resources such as water and energy in the manufacture of new products. Recycling also reduces waste from going to landfills.
