Take Action
There are many ways you can help. Here are some of them:
1. Send a message to the Mayor. Use our sample message or write your own!
2. Send a message to the Chancellor. Use our sample message or write your own! Better yet, send your letters (and your students' letters) on re-used or recycled paper to:
Chancellor's Office
New York City Department of Education
52 Chambers Street
New York, NY 10007
3. Submit NYC.gov feedback, or call 311. If your school's not recycling, or if you're concerned about the lack of recycling in NYC schools, let the City know.
4. Write a letter to your favorite media. Tell them why you're concerned. Ask them to cover this issue. Take a look at a letter we've written.
5. Sign our petition and get everyone you know to sign it.
6. Actively contribute to our Group. Use the site and attend meetings.
7. Get educated. Do you know enough about recycling? Test yourself by attending a monthly Office of Recycling Outreach and Education volunteer meeting.
8. Educate. Children are the future of recycling. Plus, they love it!
9. Spread the word. Tell everyone you know everything you know about the lack of recycling in NYC schools and ask them to help us make a difference!
10. Feel good. You're doing your part!
