New listserv spreads the word on recycling at UNM

recycleWhat materials can you recycle on campus? Where do you drop off that old phone book? Find the answers to these questions and more by joining the recycling listserv, a new resource from the University of New Mexico Recycling department.

Resource Conservation Manager Linda McCormick started the listserv to circulate recycling information more easily. “Using the listserv I’ve been able to find homes for usable or even new items like a fax machine, printer cartridges and fire wood (broken pallets) as well as pass on pure information,” McCormick said.

The listserv provides up to date information on recycling programs, such as UNM’s recent addition of plastic bottles to materials recycled on campus and phone book collection locations in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Los Lunas and Belen.

To join the listserv, e-mail McCormick at lindamcc@unm.edu.
