Merici College Green Tip #7 - Global Recycling Day Monday 18 March.

Next Monday, March 18th is Global Recycling Day.

Recycling is a key part of the circular economy, helping to protect our natural resources. 

Each year recycling saves over 700 million tonnes in CO2 emissions, and this is projected to increase to 1 billion tons by 2030. 

Recycling is a key component for action on climate change and environmental degradation.

PLEASE RECYCLE

At Merici there will be a waste audit in the New Quad at lunchtime on Monday, March 18th.  

All are welcome to participate or observe.
