Recycling Do’s and Don’ts

Natick Community Senior Center 117 East Central Street, Natick. As the NYT recently reported (5.29.18), “We have all done it: a greasy pizza box, a disposable coffee cup, the odd plastic bag. Sometimes, we want things to be recyclable, so we put them in the recycling bin. Waste managers often call this wishful or aspirational recycling. But, unfortunately, putting these objects in with the rest of the recycling can do more harm than good.” Join Natick Sustainability Officer, Jillian Wilson-Martin to check-in with your home recycling.
