Recycling Education Interns 2009
by Jack Lin - January 5th, 2009.
Many people are still not aware of the importance of recycling. And, despite the prevalence recycling at home in the Oakland Bay Area, many Peralta students and faculty remain confused about what exactly can be recycled in Peralta’s recycling bins. Even the handful of self-proclaimed recycling experts may pause to consider some everyday items. A juice-box, for example: paper exterior, plastic coated interior… does that mean it’s recyclable? Raising awareness and educating the community about recycling at Peralta is the mission of the Colleges’ 2nd class of Recycling Education Interns.
