Green Your Holidays: Reduce Waste and Recycle More

The holiday season can be one of abundant joy, but also abundant waste. From gifts, to meals, to decorations, the holidays can mean negative impacts on our local environment. Make a difference this holiday season by resolving to reduce your waste and recycle more. Join Columbus GreenSpot Coordinator and SWACO for simple ways to plan a more eco-friendly holiday season and maintain those habits into the new year. We will cover topics such as food waste prevention, sustainable gift-giving, decorations, and recyclability of various product packaging.
