Description:
Recycling is imperative to the health of
our planet. It saves natural resources, reduces greenhouse gas emissions and
has become an integral part of our manufacturing processes. Students of all
ages need to understand how their everyday trash versus recycling choices
affects the bigger environmental picture.
Attend this informative and practical
workshop to learn about recycling paper, plastic, glass, cans and cartons.
Review the raw materials which recyclables are made of, and hear about the
energy and natural resource savings achieved through recycling. Discover how
recyclables are manufactured into similar or new everyday products. Get
detailed instruction on how to properly prepare your recyclables for pick-up or
drop-off, and understand why this is important in order to close the loop from
consumer to manufacturer and back again.
Recycling is a relevant topic as most
schools and communities offer the ability to recycle, but it is up the
individual to make recycling a habit.
Come away with recycling know-how that will enable you to effectively
tie recycling education into your curriculums. Empower your students to “Learn
to do the right thing, Recycling.”
