Use Reusable Containers

Create Your Own Action
New Burrtec Recycling Challenge
Burrtec has stiffened its requirements for recycling in Palm Desert. I will rinse containers that have held food so that they can be recycled.

Eileen Gill 7/26/2019 4:50 PM- I may be plastic, but I am dedicated to removing plastic from the oceans. Even if it means moving myself. But you know what happens if a mermaid must leave the sea. It is sad.
