Earth Day!
Today marks the 36th anniversary of Earth Day. Each year on April 22nd, people around the world work to increase public awareness off environmental issues. Here are a few local resources to help you do you part in preserving this wonderful world of ours:
- Before you pour that paint thinner down the drain, consider taking it to Kent County's Hazardous Waste Program
- Help keep recyclable items out of landfills by signing up for the city's Free Curbside Recycling Program for Grand Rapids Residents
- Consider joining GRfreecycle, it is a place for people in the Grand Rapids area to help keep usable items out of landfills by finding new homes for loved but not necessary things.
