See the Great Outdoors
Playing, visiting and enjoying being outside is the first step to build love of nature and our environment.
While doing this, if you see something awe-inspiring, take an image and share on our KBVB facebook page. We want to see it too.

Get Rid of Plastic Bottles for Good
For those who know me, know this is something I hope everyone will do. No more plastic water bottles--please.
And to scare you into making this change, did you realize plastic water bottles have 3 times more microplastics in them than if you used tap water? I learned this information at the URI Microplastic Conference in October from our scientists.

Reduce Your Trash Amounts
Recycling will greatly help. Or start a compost pile. And of course take advantage of the many RI diversion programs that are offered. We can divert clothing, e-waste, household hazardous waste, yard waste and more. See the listing below. You will see your weekly trash amounts significantly shrink.
