Thousands of recycling events are held across the country around November 15 each year to mark America Recycles Day.
Want to get people talking about your organization’s recycling? Try creating a big statement in the lobby (like this recycling structure on the left), or organize a small educational event just for your office.
You can even do something as simple as sharing these 30-second animated recycling videos to get the conversation going. Here are a few additional resources:
- A new 10-step action plan for businesses, government agencies and institutions from a new program called Recycling At Work.
- America Recycles Day’s Employee Go To Guide.
- Read “Get the message with big green statements.”
Over the past 30 years, the national recycling rate has increased every year. Today it stands at 34.7%.
So go ahead, celebrate your accomplishments. Call your Great Forest representative for help organizing your own recycling event.
