Reduce your waste and recycle everything possible! The manufacture, distribution and use of products – as well as management of the resulting waste – all result in greenhouse gas emissions. Waste prevention and recycling reduce greenhouse gases associated with these activities by reducing methane emissions, saving energy, and increasing forest carbon sequestration.
For more information on the link between waste and greenhouse gas emissions, see the
EPA website.
For information on County recycling guidelines, see the
County Solid Waste website.
