Go Green Recyclables Report

From the Go Green! Committee:

The numbers are in, and we are up to 36,919 pounds of rescued recyclables for the year!
January: 5,440 pounds
February: 4,240 pounds
March: 4,704 pounds
April: 3,980 pounds
May: 2,600 pounds
June: 2,505 pounds
July: 2,500 pounds
August: 5,210 pounds
September: 5,740 pounds
GRAND TOTAL: 36,919 pounds

At this rate, we should surpass 50,000 pounds (25 tons) by the end of the year!
Thank you for your continued support of this important endeavor, and an extra special thank you to those volunteers in each building who gather the recyclables each week. You ROCK!

Remember:

GREEN recycling bins are for empty metal, empty plastic and empty glass containers.

GRAY recycling bins are for paper. (Cardboard should be broken down and placed to the side. Plastic-coated cardboard and paper, like textbook mailers and ream wrappers, are trash.)

TRASH CANS are for Styrofoam, food, candy wrappers, potato chip bags, tissues, paper towels, wax-coated cups and plastic utensils. (Please place trash cans right next to the recycling bins.)
Greenstar, our recyclables contractor, picks up on Thursday mornings.
