I just spoke with Kim Ducote. She is asking Sustainable Renton to spread the word about an upcoming program being offered through King County offering FREE training for folks who are interested in Recycling and Composting. See the information below:
Spread the word about 2014 Master Recycler Composter program
Did you know half of what goes to Cedar Hills Regional Landfill could be recycled? We are looking for outgoing individuals who want to inspire others to reduce waste and recycle more. King County Solid Waste Division invites you and your community to upcoming Master Recycler Composter (MRC) training. Learn all about the do’s and don’ts of curbside recycling, including food scrap recycling, and then put your training to work through volunteer outreach. This is a train-the-trainer program with a community service component. Applications will be accepted through April 30th. The program is open to King County residents outside of the cities of Seattle and Milton only. The training will be in Kent, Saturdays May 3rd and 10th, with an optional field trip on May 17th.

This is awesome. Living in an apartment complex so few folks recycle, it’s a tragedy of the commons sort of thing. “I don’t have to do it, someone else will”
Yes, there is a real need for apartment dwellers and owners to start composting and recycling. This particular certification concentrates primarily on residential recycling, however, knowing the need for education Sustainable Renton will be hosting an apartment composting/recycling workshop in the Fall, keep your eyes out for more info to come.
