I will read through the three emails each week to learn more about plastic and get ideas on how to use less.

Know the Numbers
The numbers #1-7 on plastics tell us a lot and can help us be better recyclers. I will learn more about what the symbols on plastics mean.

Stop "wishcycling"
Contamination makes the recycling process more difficult. I will review which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my county and recycle only those items.

Watch a Documentary
I will watch a documentary film about plastic waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.
