"Most systems are only as worthwhile as their inputs, and recycling is no exception...Many problems in our recycling system come from people's misinterpretations of the process, and fortunately, this can be fixed."
~
Beth Porter
As members of the solid waste industry dealing with contamination, we understand her point all too well. In her book, Reduce, Reuse, Reimagine: Sorting Out the Recycling System, Beth Porter explores why recycling is important, what the current issues are, and how they can be addressed. See our feature article below for more on her book.
Communication and education play major roles in correcting misinterpretations and preventing contamination. Eco Partners would love to
work with you to deliver your messages about local recycling programs and help you improve your community's recycling "inputs." Please give me a call or
email me

Keep on "reducing, reusing and reimagining!"
