Kellogg Center in Derby to host program about recycling

DERBY - Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection invites you to a free informational program about recycling in Connecticut to help you “recycle right” from 1:30-3 p.m. April 2 at Kellogg Environmental Center.  



The education staff will host the program for all ages to learn about recycling.  

Recycle, recycle, recycle - that’s all you ever hear, but do you ever wonder what happens to the recyclables once you throw them in your bin?  
Do you have questions about what goes into the bin and what does not? You will learn more about how some of Connecticut’s waste is managed and ways to reduce waste entering the waste stream.  
The State of Connecticut has set a goal of improving recycling efforts to 60 percent by 2024 as stated in DEEP’s DRAFT Comprehensive Materials Management Strategy (CMMS)
Be part of this effort and take a look at your waste through family focused activities and presentation.  

This event is open to the public and there will be interactive activities to keep kids engaged and adults informed about the right way to recycle.  
Registration is required.

The Kellogg Environmental Center is located at 500 Hawthorne Ave.  
For further information, directions, or to register call 203-734-2513 or email donna.kingston@ct.gov.
