September 29, 2005

Educating children about recycling is a good way to promote adult participation, says USU Recycling Coordinator Jay Price. Children who grasp the benefits of recycling often instigate conservation measures in their own homes. Parents want to set a good example and encouragement from their kids may be just the push they need to get started.
