Our first meeting to discuss School Recycling Action:
Friday, November 9 at 7pm
Village Pour House (East Village)
3rd Ave and 11th Street
We'd like to discuss:
1. Contacting the media. I sent the attached op-ed to the NY Post. I'd like to mass distribute it to the media and start a letter writing campaign about this issue.
2. How to start a school recycling program and the issues surrounding it.
3. Vision of school recycling. How should it ideally run. Maybe a non-profit group will need to be formed in order to educate students and staff and set up a system in each school.
4. Any other ideas? What other actions should we take to raise awareness and solve this tremendous problem.
Hope you can make it... please write to me to let me know if we should expect you at the meeting and any questions or concerns you have and like to talk about at the meeting at mathjosi@yahoo.com. Also please forward this message to anyone you think might be interested.
Thanks,
Micki Josi
