The students and staff at
Gainfield School are very concerned about doing our part to protect the
environment. Here are just a few things we are doing:
-
We're recycling bottle
caps with the
Aveda Bottle Cap Recycling Program.
What type of caps do we collect?
The program accepts caps that are rigid polypropylene
plastic, sometimes noted with a 5 in the chasing arrows
recycling symbol. This includes caps that twist on with a
threaded neck such as caps on shampoo, water, soda, milk and
other beverage bottles, flip top caps on tubes and food
product bottles (such as ketchup and mayonnaise), laundry
detergents and some jar lids such as peanut butter.
Excluded from collection are pharmaceutical lids and non
rigid lids such as yogurt lids, tub lids (margarine, cottage
cheese), and screw on lids that are not rigid. If
you can bend or break the lid with your bare hands, then it
does not meet the rigid plastic definition. Please
do not include any metal lids or plastic pumps or sprayers.
Unfortunately, too much of the wrong types of materials can
contaminate the recycling process. We appreciate
your efforts in keeping it clean!
