Recycling 101 – It’s Easy, and It’s the Law
Thursday, November 5, 1-2:30pm
Montpelier Senior Activity Center, 58 Barre Street

Did you know that recycling is now more convenient than ever in Vermont? Vermont’s Recycling & Composting Initiative, part of Act 148, has provisions to make recycling simple and accessible to everyone. Now that recyclables are banned from the landfill, it’s important to know what goes in the recycling bin, and what DOESN’T. What does this mean for you, your organization, or your business? Find out in this presentation by Cassandra Hemenway of the Central Vermont Solid Waste Management District. Cassandra will give an overview about how recycling works in Vermont, what goes in and stays out of your recycling bin and then provide tips and ideas for making recycling simple and easy in your own home. Cassandra can also answer questions about home composting and how to divert food scraps from the landfill as well. If you already recycle, you can learn how to do even more. Come with your questions!

Free and open to the public!
