What We Learned from 

Glen Nison,

NYC Department of Sanitation! 

1. We need to recycle more and waste less! 

2. We should recycle glass bottles and jars but not other glass material like mirrors and windows! 

3. If it is at least 50% metal it can and should be recycled! 

4. Most paper can be recycled. Paper that can not be recycled includes any soiled material, hard covered books and soft paper (for example napkins and tissues) 

5. If you need more information call 311 or go to www.nyc.gov/recycle
