Trash-talk: ‘Better at the Bin’ program sorts it out
Confused about what goes in which bin? Try this app to find out: https://www.recology.com/recology-san-francisco/what-bin/
Recology has a three-minute video that gives you the basic knowledge to get your trash into the right bin and helps you create less to start with. See also https://www.recology.com/better-at-the-bin/
Some points:
- SF now has to send your recyclables halfway around the world for processing, so its better to create less in the first place.
- Paper is valuable for recycling, but not if it’s soaked with soda (or anything else) — empty and/or rinse your recyclables before putting them into the BLUE BIN. A half-can of soda can ruin a whole bin of paper recyclables.
- Composting is good for the environment. Put your food-stained paper items, along with food scraps, coffee grounds and pizza boxes, in the GREEN BIN.
- Cut the amount of plastic you produce by refusing single-use plastics — use a metal water bottle, cloth shopping bags, and reusable sandwich containers.
[May 2019] Read an SFWeekly article about the details of recycling and composting. Continue reading “Trash-talk: ‘Better at the Bin’ program sorts it out”
