About this Event
"Recycle Right" is a new, open-discussion class focused on the issues we face in with recycling in Florida. The first offering in this series focuses on recycling, with waste reduction, recycling, composting, and other topics on tap through the course of 2024. Please register for this event ONLY at ufsarasotaext.eventbrite.com rather than any third-party websites, as they are not affiliated with our classes and events.
Through group discussions and classroom learning, this class will frame the environmental issues facing our community, with the intent to create action steps moving forward. These discussions also will help shape future classes, events and projects offered by UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County.
"Recycle Right" takes a deeper look at recycling, food waste, challenges and obstacles, and related environmental issues in Sarasota County and beyond. We aim to involve individuals passionate about protecting the environment and willing to work to make our community healthier, but welcome everyone interested in learning. The goal is to facilitate a discussion about the state of recycling.
