Today’s MI Environment story comes from the Recycling Raccoons!
The Recycling Raccoon Squad is already in full swing for summer. Between swimming, cookouts and summer projects we'll put off until the fall, we've got it all. But something we never put off is sharing some of our favorite recycling updates. Whether it's all about pizza boxes or loose recyclables, we've got great summer tips.
Don't let your friends miss out — share them with someone you know!
Bagging your recyclables may seem like the way to go since you bag your trash, but it can be dangerous for the people picking up and sorting through materials. So it's always best to keep your recyclables loose and any dangerous objects out of your recycling bin!
Looking for a great way to celebrate great recycling and cool off this summer? Check out these two Michigan businesses: Founders Brewing Co. and Bell’s Brewery. As a part of their practices, they utilize recycled glass and recovered materials to help improve the state’s recycling rate. See more about the ways they help keep Michigan green!
Start your summer recycling right!
