Looking for other ways to celebrate America Recycles Day?
#BeRecycled is to encourage a commitment to the “Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.” mantra in every aspect of your life – at home, at work/school, and on-the-go. And it doesn’t have to stop there. When you purchase items, look for those made with recycled content – this supports the circular economy!
Here are some books to consider for celebrating and observing America Recycles Day
Read an environmental-themed book like Dr. Suess’s The Lorax or Mid-Course Correction: Toward a Sustainable Enterprise by Georgia’s own Ray Anderson or one of the 800+ books listed on Goodreads’ Best Environmental Books.
