The Central Virginia Waste Management Authority will be picking up curbside recycling this coming Wednesday.

Speaking of recycling, there’s this announcement from University of Richmond:

RecycleMania, takes place from Feb. 5 through March 31 and is between over 500 schools. Every school is competing to recycle the most and waste the least. Last year, the University of Richmond ranked first among schools in VA for recycling of bottles and cans! This year we hope to see improvement in our waste per person numbers. Please visit http://sustainability.richmond.edu/involved/competitions/recyclemania.html for more information on the competition and to see how we are doing each week. Please take this opportunity to learn what you can recycle on campus and share your knowledge with a co-worker or friend, http://www.sustainability.richmond.edu/materials-management/recycling/guide.html. With your help, RecycleMania 2012 will be the best one yet.
