Join The Discovery and partner organizations from throughout our region to celebrate The Discovery’s Recycle Round-up. We’re uniting our community to explore how recycling helps us reduce waste, save energy, and conserve precious resources. Learn, get inspired, and take action to help keep materials out of landfills, save natural resources, and reduce pollution. Find out how we can all pitch in to recycle more and waste less!
