America Recycles Day on Nov. 15 and tips for greener holidays

Happy America Recycles Day, November 15—a day to celebrate accomplishments and renew commitment to the ways we can make a difference when we recycle responsibly. Although a sometimes confusing and daunting undertaking, recycling nevertheless keeps millions of tons of waste out of our overburdened landfills every year. The better we get at doing it, the more our recyclables will stay out of the trash and get reused. To clear up some of the perplexities, The Berkshire Eagle publishes “The Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Guide” for our county communities each year. Thank you, Berkshire Eagle. There are also lots of informative online resources, like EarthDay.org’s “7 Tips to Recycle Better.”
