Recycling, along with litter control and beautification, is one of Keep Carbondale Beautiful's primary purposes.  Increased recycling translates into more efficient use of resources and also reduces litter and therefore enhances the beautification of the city.  Keep Carbondale Beautiful seeks to educate the public on the environmental and economic benefits of recycling and to initiate more participation through efforts such as the Spring Clean-up and Recycling Day as well as the Phone Book Recycling Day.  Click here for details on local recycling locations.
