According to the EPA, of the 267.8 million tons of municipal solid waste generated by Americans in 2017, only 94.2 million tons were recycled or composted. Sixty-six percent of discarded paper and cardboard was recycled, 27 percent of glass and 8 percent of plastics were recycled.
If you haven't already, make sure you convert as many of your school's bins into ones with separate recycling compartments. Wherever you can get them, add a recycling bin and remove any excuses people might have for not recycling their waste. Water fountains are another essential purchase.
