I will spend at least 60 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will spend at least 30 minutes visiting a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 60 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.
