♻️ Where Does Your Recycling Really Go? An AMA with Recology
"Can this be recycled?" "Where does it actually end up?" "Is it still being shipped overseas?" Recycling can feel confusing, and the answers aren't always clear. Join the 🌐 Circular Economy Cluster at 9Zero for a fireside chat and open AMA to get a transparent, behind-the-scenes look at the state of recycling today.
Agenda
Fireside chat: William and Julia discuss how recycling really works today, what happens to materials after they leave your bin, and where the system is headed.
Open AMA: your chance to ask Julia anything about recycling, from what belongs in which bin to where it all ends up.
Come curious and bring your toughest recycling questions!
