Week 2: Recycling Set-Up
Day 1:
Affirmation.
Take along cup.
Shopping bags.

New Today: Get Ready:  Get the Information you need for our local area.  JUST the information, nothing else.  What does your municipality recycle? Learn what you can recycle: it’s some combination of paper, aluminum, plastics, glass and yard waste.  Do they pick up mixed stuff, or does it have to be sorted?  What do they pick up? Would you have to do a once a month drop off yourself?

Day 2:
Affirmation.
Take along cup.
Shopping bags.

New Today:  Get Set:  Set up your collection bins: Okay, you can do this!
One bin close for everything if you’re lucky, or simple bags or boxes if you need to sort.  Get the kids involved now, make it pretty! Know where you’re going to put the stuff after a couple of days- straight to the curb? In the garage?  You’ll be amazed at how fast it piles up.  And to think all of that used to go into the garbage!

Day 3:
Affirmation.
Take along cup.
Shopping bags.

New Today:  Get Set Some More: Put your reminder signs up by all of your wastebaskets (you’ll find premade cut outs at gogreenonline.com (search “download center”))

Day 4-6.
Affirmation.
Take along cup.
Shopping bags.

New Today: Nothing.  That’s it.  Great Job.  Let everybody wonder what those signs and bins are about.  We’re not fully engaged yet.

Day 7:  Week 2 Assessment:  How’d you do?
