The Renew the Blue Committee and Blue Springs School District’s efforts on recycling are paying dividends! The data is very impressive. Imagine the mound of trash that was kept off of the steps of city hall! Through this effort, the idea of “environmental responsibility” is being realized in Blue Springs. The BSSD School with the most recycled material should receive a presentation of an “E-excellence” award!
With 327,490 lbs recycled per quarter! That’s over a million pounds annually! Annually that amounts to nearly $8000.00! This is really encouraging news.
Following is detailed information about the material recycled by the School District during the first quarter 2010:
The information in this article are excerpts from an letter received from Bob Fasl who served on the Renew the Blue Committee and helped encourage and organize this very successful recycling effort. Kudos to Bob for his work in this area!
