This nationally-recognized event works not only to promote recycling in the United States but to celebrate the act itself. Recycling is no new concept yet many, due in part to limited time and living in a \u201cdisposable\u201d society, do not always recycle as often as possible. America Recycles Day hopes to raise awareness and to illustrate that, although recycling may take a few extra minutes and is not always the easiest option, it more than pays off in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>So what can you do? First, take the <a title=\"America Recycles Day Pledge\" href=\"http:\/\/americarecyclesday.org\/take-the-pledge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">American Recycles Day pledge<\/a>.\u00a0 The three-part pledge emphasizes the importance of learning, acting and sharing in order to expand recycling. Second, recycle! \u00a0Michigan State is a highly sustainable university and has recycling bins located throughout campus. Bins accept a wide range of materials including white paper, mixed paper, newspaper, cardboard, boxboard, household metal and plastics #1 through #7. Familiarize yourself with what exactly is encompassed by these materials- odds are, you can recycle more than you think!<\/p>\n<p>You can also take recycling a step further by visiting MSU\u2019s very own Public Drop-Off Center. The Public Drop-Off Center is entirely free, open 24\/7, LEED-certified and conveniently located at the south end of campus on the corner of Farm Lane and Green Way. The center accepts most materials.
