Rethink Recycling Toolkits
Community Education Toolkit
Many people do not know that almost 40% of what is thrown away can be recycled and some things we throw away can become hazardous to our environment. This toolkit will help you inspire, educate and actively engage others to reduce their amount of trash and use less toxic products. It is designed for groups of any size, age or composition.
You can recycle more than you think! Download your own copy of the Know What to Throw Guide.
Open a cupboard in your kitchen, basement, or garage. Read a few labels. If they contain any of these words: caution, warning, danger, poison, the products may contain hazardous materials. Hazardous to you, hazardous to your family and hazardous to our environment if not used up or disposed of properly.
- Don’t throw them in the garbage.
- Don’t pour them in the sewer.
- Don’t pour them on the ground.
