We interview Kristin Welch, Recycling Coordinator with the Madison County Department of Solid Waste who”talks trash” with us about the new recycling programs in Madison County, what efforts the department is making to educate residents on the benefits of recycling, and offers some insight on the upcoming plastic bag ban in New York State. Kristin also clarifies what can and can’t be recycled, and explains how you can prepare to celebrate Earth Day later this month at a special event at the Buyea Road facility.
