ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Wilton Go Green Festival a huge success

Most impressive was the display from Middlebrook School, Wilton's middle school, where recycling is part of every student's day. As teacher Janet Nobles explained, every trash can in the school has an adjacent recycling bin for glass and plastic. Further, they are working with Terracycle to send them juice bags (like CapriSun) and snack bags that are then recycled into new consumer products. They are glad to receive donations of these from anyone. If you don't eat those particular products, note that they also recycle wine corks. A list is on the Terracycle web site
