Funtastic family Earth Day Celebration at Mt. Diablo Recycling Facility

Mt. Diablo Recycling (MDR) has a vision to educate the community to go beyond filling up recycling containers – by adopting new reuse habits that give recyclables many lifecycles.
 
To this end, MDR is promoting an Earth Day celebration with the theme “Reuse & then Recycle” by offering two identical free sessions on Saturday, April 20, 2013 at 1300 Loveridge Road. Session one runs from 9:30 am to 11:30 am; session two from 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm. Contact Nicole Impagliazzo at (925) 692-2224 or Nicole@Garaventaent.com with questions or to reserve space for the morning or afternoon session. Please RSVP by April 12^th, 2013.
 
This funtastic celebration includes presentations and tours of MDR’s 90,000-square-foot facility – featuring colossal recycling machine (Big Blue) and his machine buddy
(Big Wall-e), the 4R’s (Reduce – Reuse – Recycle – Respect the Earth), and MDR’s mascot The Recycling Guy. Event handouts include a “mini recycling container” and a listing of what is accepted in MDR’s residential recycling program. Energetic participants can also make and take home unique reusable treasures and play the “Divide up the Recycling” game.
 
Nicole Impagliazzo believes, “The most valuable take homes from this event will be a new awareness of innovative ways to “Reuse & then Recycle” to further conserve natural resources and divert reusable waste from landfills.”
