Where was Recycling On the Go in 2013?
In 2013, St. Louis Earth Day continued many multi-year relationships with a diverse group of businesses and organizations that hold special events. Through Recycling On the Go, we are able to provide recycling and composting services and education to diverse groups and to a variety of venues.
With 53 tons of materials diverted in 2013, more waste than ever before was kept out of area landfills by the program.
