Be honest, have you thrown one of those plastic clamshell containers for strawberries or blackberries in your recycle bin? That's a recycling no-no, and that's why this episode is so timely. April is Earth Month, and as our residents know and practice themselves, Dublin is becoming greener and more sustainable every day. But it's always important to review and update the do's and don'ts of recycling because things evolve constantly, and that's a great thing! Our partners at SWACO (Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio) help us and all of Central Ohio do that in multiple ways: educational programs in schools, tours of the Franklin County Sanitary Landfill, business partnerships and grants for which your organization can apply for possible financial assistance. As Lindsay and Bruce discovered, the landfill has a 'shelf life,’ and it's up to us to extend it. You'll find out how and more about one of our most popular events annually - Sustainable Saturday - where you can bring in everything from documents to hazardous waste to unused pills, and we'll make sure they're disposed of safely and properly.
