Recycling Works: Gain Community Support by Telling the Real Story - webinar
Start Date: 3/27/2025Start Time: 12:00 PM
End Date: 3/27/2025End Time: 1:00 PM
Event Description:
It’s been in the papers recently … “Recycling Is Broken!” “Plastic Recycling Is a Fraud!” “Are We Really Recycling?” Inaccurate media stories are causing Americans to lose faith in our recycling programs, lowering participation and tonnages. And the web is awash in posts that offer misleading “statistics” around actual recycling practices, rates and results.

The truth is our curbside recyclables are going to end markets; our residents are making a difference when they put their recyclables on the curbside; and despite issues of contamination and market fluctuations, municipal curbside recycling is an invaluable source of paper, plastic, metal, and glass recyclables for a wide variety of products.

So what's a recycling advocate to do? How can we get people to believe us when we’re telling the truth?
