In celebration of America Recycles Day last month, students from across the state in grades K-12 were invited by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection<\/a> (NDEP) to showcase their artistic talent and commitment to recycling by participating in the Nevada Recycles Poster Contest. Now the winning works of art are on display on RTC<\/a> buses!<\/p>\r\n

Did you know, in order for recycling to be effective, it must be done properly?\u00a0 Any recyclable placed in your recycling bin should be:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n\t
  1. Empty<\/strong> of all its contents.<\/li>\r\n\t
  2. Clean<\/strong> and rinsed if needed.<\/li>\r\n\t
  3. Dry<\/strong> before placed in the recycling bin.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    While all bottles, cans and containers should be clean, dry and free of most food waste before you place them in your recycling container, they don\u2019t need to be spotless. The goal is to make sure they are clean enough to avoid contaminating other materials.<\/p>\r\n

    As part of the contest, students were encouraged to incorporate the three-step rule, \u201cEmpty, Clean, and Dry\u201d into their artwork. The entries were categorized by grade level and judged based on originality, visual clarity, clear messaging, and adherence to the theme.<\/p>\r\n

    \"\"<\/p>\r\n

    In addition to having their posters on display inside select RTC transit buses, the winners also received cash prizes for themselves and their classroom. You can view the winning artwork on Nevada Recycles<\/a> website and be sure to be on the lookout for the winning posters rolling around town on our transit buses.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
