America Recycles Day

Educational Resources

Once a year the U.S. EPA offically reminds everyone that recycling plays a dramatic role in reducing pollution. This year America Recycles Day (ARD) is celebrated on Thursday, November 15th.  This national initiative of Keep America Beautiful takes place to raise awareness and the the importance of recycling.  It’s a great day to recommit to recycling–an important activity that can have a positive impact on the environment.  Always remember, to REDUCE, REUSE, Recycle. 

CVWMA wants to take the time to thank YOU, the every day recyclers through CVWMA residential and drop-off recycling programs.  Over 36,000 tons of recycables have been recycled by residential recyclers and over 5,000 tons at drop-off locations during fiscal year 2018.  That’s alot of paper, cartons, cardboard, bottles,and cans!  Together we’re making great things happen in our region.  CVWMA staff compile Monthly Program Statistics to show how much is being recycled where you live.
