Notes from the Recycling Bin

Did you know …

Cradle to cradle design is a holistic economic, industrial, and social framework modeling human industry on the natural processes of sustainability. Waste does not exit in nature because each organism contributes to the health of the whole, one generation to the next, cradle to cradle.

Information provided by ReGroup, a nonprofit educational group, formed in 1989 to develop public awareness of waste reduction, reuse, and recycling benefits on Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula. This month ReGroup will meet Oct. 30 rather than Oct. 16, 6:30 p.m. at Hope Community Center. on Princeton Avenue off Kalifornsky Beach Road. Find ReGroup on Facebook or contact at regroupkenaipeninsula@gmail.com.
