Recycling Sticker Project - Volunteers needed!

Green Decade Newton, in collaboration with Newton’s Department of Public Works, is seeking numerous volunteers (16 years and older) to walk in pairs

around Newton’s neighborhoods, while adhering “recycling education stickers”
onto all residential green bins in the spring and summer months.  Maps
will be provided and the work will be conducted primarily during the morning
hours. The “Recycle Sticker Project” will help remind all Newton residents of
the items that may or may not be placed in our green bins. Funding for the
stickers has been provided by Green Decade Newton, Whole Foods Markets Newton
and Waste Management. The goal is to raise awareness about recycling, not only
to benefit our environment, but also to reap substantial financial savings on
the cost of disposing the City’s trash.  Please contact https://docs.google.com/forms/d/10-iGc3IAcV3WX041uof0cUlBL6TDgnWeTQqcDpsh5-E/viewform

sign up.
