1. Overview of Curbside Acceleration Recycling Program
Coca-Cola Recycling in partnership with the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation is happy to announce the Curbside Acceleration Recycling Program. The goal of this program is to assist in increasing the recovery of recyclables here in Georgia. Encouraging the recovery of recyclables plays an important role in the company’s reduction of its carbon footprint. In order to help facilitate this goal Coca-Cola Recycling, in partnership with the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation, will distribute up to $1.4 million dollars to non-profits and local governments to promote increased recycling in residential curbside collection programs.
