We all need to recycle at our every opportunity.

Hi Vicky,  that is so true.

Stephanie- Awesome! We should always recycle. My mom started me on recycling eons ago when people would laugh at her for doing so. Katerina

Hey Katerina,  I thought it was pretty neat too.  :)  A good way for us to stay in touch with our clients also.

Stephanie, I looked up Michigan and found out their day was October 25th.  Sniff.

Hi Gary,  I thought it was a National Day?  Did you use the link in my post?

Hey Gary,  that's odd.  I checked it out.  Texas is all of November.

Ohhh It's deer hunting season.....   Makes sense to me now!  Oakland County belongs to NoHaz, a great program for recycling and hazardous wastes

OMG Gary, I'm cracking up.  They changed it because of Deer Hunting Season?  That's funny.

I can't swear that's why, but November 15th is the first day of deer season, I just verified. That is if the government isn't shut down again.

Hi Stephanie! November 15 is also opening day in Michigan for Rifle/Shotgun Deer hunting season for 15 days. Oh...I just read Gary's comment! November 15 is like a National Holiday in many places of Michigan. GREAT tourism opportunities! I would say it might be a ladies recycling day but I know many hunt and also many who have other festivities planned! That is why I was worried about our first Green Drinks being on the 14th~

 Great highlight! Interesting how it is supposed to be "national" yet some have other days on schedule -- just shows how important LOCALISM is!

I did not know this, but recycling on a daily basis is something we all should do.    Yes there are many products made from recycling and I am sure this list will grow

I know a few Ecobrokers who show up at community events and help out. What a great way to promote the community.

What do you mean by Surfboards?!!!! LOL My husband would kill me, he is an avid surfer. :0)

Thank you for the reminder, I knew something was happening on Nov. 15, but could not remember.

Stephanie - I love to see large organizations who take the time to recycle.  The Orange County Board of Realtors in Laguna Hills, California has containers in their public areas specifically for bottles and cans.  So glad to see they're being proactive about recycling.

I had no idea they had a recycling day, thanks.  Our city does one 4 times a year, but national, nope didn't know.

This is great information for those GOING GREEN!!  Great post Stephanie...   Good thing I don't hunt or I might have to go Deer Hunting instead!  LOL

Our we in Houston deciding now to catch up to Chicago? That would be nice. Along the lines of the energy efficiency, homeowners should be reminded that their energy provider probably will do a free energy audit of their home. Currently, energy inspectors are becoming more common. The federal government has a website for these courses, but they can be browsed by anyone. It is at energycodes.gov.

Stephanie, Great info (as always) I really did not know that on the 15th it was recycling day. Thanks again

I did not know this, will have to check and see if Connecticut is promoting it.......ecards are a great idea

Stephanie--I did not know there was such a day for recycling. Thanks for sharing!

Our county, I believe still has a day each week they actually pick up curb side for recycled materials as long they are separated.........and in special bins......
