S2 E33: Recycling Realities #2

24 minutes

Join me for the second part of our story--Recycling Realities where I go on my very first ride along! I spend a Wednesday morning with Gavin, Charles, and Saul as we collect the recyclables and not-so-recyclables in our wee little South African town of Greyton.

WHAT CAN I RECYCLE IN GREYTON?

Metal,

Glass (this even includes lightbulbs, but UNBROKEN),

Cardboard,

White/brown paper,

magazines,

newspapers,

All HARD plastics,

Plastic bags,

Boetie said that he also takes small and large appliances & electronics ranging from washing machines to cell phones.

However, the next time you come across any soft plastic (other than plastic bags or packets), DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT PUT THAT IN RECYCLING. And the next time you have a take away meal in a polystyrene container, DO NOT PUT THAT IN RECYCLING. DON’T. DO IT.
