Our site in Decatur, Alabama, kicked-off the successful 5th Annual Recycle Education Program, “Think Outside the Trash,”with AustinMiddle School.We discussed the foundations of recycling and its importance, how to recycle, and how students can become “Recycling Ambassadors” in their homes, schools and communities. The programalso included several engagement activities for the students including creating a“Recycle Ambassador Club,” consisting of a team of teachers and students who help promote recycling at school events as well as collect, weigh, and log weekly recyclable materials collected at the school. Three friendly competitions saw a collection of over 331 pounds of PET. Their “End of the Year” goal reached close to 4,000 pounds of recyclable materials. IVL believes in the importance of recycling as part of the circular economy – and our combined efforts can achieve this.We are on amission to educate the difference of PET fromother types of plastic and the importance of recycling. This is why we believe the Recycling Education Program is crucial in instilling a sense of responsibility and recycling culture among children, our future leaders.
