National Recycling Day
November 15, 2010
Were you aware that since 1997, November 15 has been officially designated as America Recycle Day? I was not aware of this day being set aside to remind folks that reducing, reusing and recycling are important ways in which each of us can help our environment. Most communities have recycling locations, including locations for dropping off your hazardous waste materials. Same communities collect recyclables on a weekly basis by furnishing residents with a trash bin just for recyclable material.
It is my understanding that Goodwill drop off centers will take your electronics since most other recycling centers will not take old TVs, computers, printers, coffee makers, etc. since most families seem to collect these electronic items, it is a real service that Goodwill performs when it collects them.
While there seem to be a great many of these specially designated days for this, that and the other thing, it is probably a good thing that we are reminded at least once a year to plant trees, remember veterans and to help clean up our environment.
