Greetings!

Spring is just around the corner and we couldn't be more excited! It's the perfect time to re-examine your sustainability goals for the spring and summer months and we've got lots of inspiration and tips to get your recycling program in shape.

Sure everyone should recycle, but CAN everyone recycle? Check out how  Hillary Scanlon , a legally blind student from  Wilfrid Laurier University , is wor king with CleanRiver to design a rec ycling program that can be effectively used by people of all abilities.

When starting a school recycling program, the first step is to get
buy-in from janitorial staff, teachers, students, and even active parents before anything else. Follow our 5 step checklist for more help starting a successful school recycling program.

Wishing you and your recycling program lots of luck 🍀 this March.
Stay Green :)
The CleanRiver Team
Hillary Scanlon is an exceptional 22-year-old student at Wilfrid Laurier University who is challenging the notion that recycling, although it is everyone’s social responsibility, is also a privilege. Hillary is legally blind and in fall 2017 she reached out to CleanRiver to pitch her project “Sustainability Through An Inclusive Lens” and since then she has held our intrigue and has us questioning our own notions about effective recycling programs. 
There is tremendous potential for your school to not only become more resource efficient but also begin saving money simply by implementing an effective recycling program. Recycling is an educational opportunity and it encourages sustainable behaviour that students can take outside the classroom. Here are 5 Steps to get your school recycling program started.
