Recycling Dreams & Reality

I just finished reading an inspiring class assignment by KT Meaney from NC State University. Her students created informational graphics about recycling for grocery stores. It’s so nice to see this type of work being done. However, I look around at the lack of resources and I just yearn for a recycling drop-off center. This gives me a recharge in making recycling happen here. I can’t provide resources, but I can persuade habits!
