"Green Tip of the Month" September: Did you know that you can contaminate recycling by not sorting properly – which increases the chances that the items you wanted to recycle actually become trash? Taking the time to sort recycling helps ensure that the items actually get recycled. Some simple tips for efficient recycling are: 1.) Empty liquid from containers & rinse; 2.) Remove tops from bottles, jars, etc. – tops are often made of different material & are recycled in a different manner than the container; 3.) Don’t rip paper – doing so shreds the paper fibers & reduces the number of times it can be recycled; 4.) Empty the contents of bags & don't seal the bags; and, 5.) Separate straws & lids from disposable cups – straws & lids are plastic and, as such, can be recycled. (Please be advised this alert will end on September 30, 2010)
