TALKING TRASH
Equip yourself with the knowledge and tools you need to improve recycling in your community.
Sustainability is one of Gen Z's top issues, and we’re ready to commit to making changes that reduce our carbon footprint.
One sure way to do that is by recycling plastic water bottles. And when we use them, let’s do it responsibly!
ABOUT TALKING TRASH
Improving the recycling infrastructure in our communities can lead to positive outcomes for the environment. As part of the Talking Trash program, you will gain more knowledge on how to properly recycle plastic bottles in your neighborhood, and use what you learn to make a lasting difference!
Join the next generation of environmentalists in the movement to take action and reduce the 91% of plastic waste that doesn’t get recycled.
