UPDATE: The Recycling AMA Video is now available in full with subtitles.

Have you ever wished you could ask all of your recycling questions to a panel of experts? Now is your chance!

Our Ask Me Anything: Recycling Edition panel of experts will tackle questions such as - what do those chasing arrows mean? Do egg cartons get recycled with paper or cardboard? Is recycling even worth it? And much, much more!

This online event is free and open to the public on Thursday, April 21 from 12 to 1 PM EST – invite your friends, neighbors, and community.

Registration required. All registrants will receive a link to the video recording afterward and are encouraged to send in their recycling questions regardless of whether or not they are able to join us live.
