🌍 Global Recycling Day

May 17 — Celebrating All Month Long

Global Recycling Day is May 17, and we’re turning one powerful day into a month-long celebration of recycling, reuse, and sustainability! Join us throughout May as we highlight the importance of recycling and how small actions can create a cleaner, greener community.

♻️ One Day That Sparks a Month of Action

Recycling plays a critical role in protecting our environment, conserving natural resources, and reducing waste in our community. While May 17 serves as our official day of recognition, we believe recycling deserves attention every day.

Throughout the month of May, we encourage our community to:

Learn what can and cannot be recycled
Reduce contamination in recycling bins
Reuse materials whenever possible
Share recycling tips with friends, family, and coworkers

💚 How You Can Participate

You don’t have to wait for May 17 to make a difference! Here are a few easy ways to get involved all month long:

✅ Recycle Right

Make sure items are clean, empty, and placed in the correct recycling bin.

✅ Reduce & Reuse

Choose reusable bags, bottles, and containers whenever you can.

✅ Spread the Word

Talk to your family, classmates, or coworkers about why recycling matters.

✅ Take the Challenge

Challenge yourself to recycle one new item correctly each week in May!

Global Recycling Day:
📅 May 17

Celebrate with us all month long by making recycling a daily habit—not just a once-a-year event.

🌱 Together, We Make a Difference

Every bottle, can, and piece of paper recycled helps protect our planet for future generations. Thank you for doing your part to keep our community clean, beautiful, and sustainable—this May and beyond.

Don't forget, this summer we will have our Clue Crew Club, once a month, during June, July, and August.

Keep an eye on our event calendar and join us all summer long for fun and educational events!

Thank you all for making 2025 a fantastic year of grassroots community stewardship, and for engaging in our mission of education and inspiring our community to take action to create a clean, beautiful, and waste-free Midland.
