This Wednesday is a red Wednesday, which means trash and recycling pickup. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night. They do not belong on the sidewalk after tomorrow night.

In recycling news, the Federal Trade Commission released updated ‘Green Guide’ standards, which will hopefully lead to more truth in marketing.

Also, I suspect that the Sierra Club Falls of the James’ Recycling Breakthrough Contest has had its entry deadline extended and the Richmond Folk Festival’s Green Team could use more volunteers.
