In celebration of Earth Day, MCG invites residents to safely recycle unwanted electronics during this free, drive thru event. Volunteers will unload items while participants remain in their vehicles. Electronics will be recycled or repurposed by an Iowa-based partner, keeping hazardous materials out of landfills. Since 2007, the event has diverted more than 753,000 pounds of e-waste from landfills. Organizers hope to collect more than 50,000 pounds this year. Attendees are also encouraged to: • Bring plastic shopping and grocery bags for Friends of Mahaska County Conservation’s Push for One Million campaign • Learn about tree planting efforts from Oskaloosa Trees Forever • Recycle batteries to help reduce landfill fire risks MORE INFO: Accepted items list: www.mahaska.org/oskaloosaecycle
