| 50 in 2010 - Update |
|
|
Since 2004, the Village, with the help of Waste Management, has been tracking refuse and recycling statistics in the Village. An important indicator the Village tracks is our diversion ratio - the amount of refuse diverted from landfills by recycling. Our goal for 2010 is to divert 50% of our waste from landfills by recycling. With your help, we can continue to be a regional leader in recycling!
