Environmental Education

Basura Bash isn't just about trash these days. We're now slashing trash at one of it's many sources:  the trashcan!

Much of what we conveniently toss in our work, school, and residential trashcan on a daily basis, or haul from our closests and garages to the curb once or twice a year, should not be tossed as trash but recycled as renewable and reusable resources.

During 2005, the Basura Bash Planning Organization established a  goal to slash by half the amount of trash it sent to the landfill.  How? By recycling what wasn't really trash at all.

It's easy, and Basura Bash will show you how
