8:10am | <\/strong>Today is America Recycles Day<\/a> (ARD), the only nationally-recognized day dedicated to encouraging Americans to recycle and to buy recycled products.<\/p>\n

The purpose of ARD is to continue to promote the social, environmental, and economic benefits of recycling, and encourage more people to join the movement toward creating a better natural environment. While recycling is promoted heavily at the national level, it\u2019s an absolute priority here in California. The State legislature recently adopted goals for Californians to divert 75% of all municipal solid waste away from landfills — and recycling is critical toward that achievement. <\/p>\n

Many often forget that it is not just soda cans and root beer bottles that need to be recycled; computers, cell phones, and even paint are amongst many of the products that we must be more aware of recycling.<\/p>\n
