Blue Bag Sorting

Event description

  • Community service
  • Sustainability

Join ASU Zero Waste as we celebrate Earth Day Every Day Month with a Blue Bag Sort. Join us for a Blue Bag Sorting Event, where volunteers dive into the recycling process by sorting hard-to-recycle office materials! Participants will learn about the lifecycle of waste after it’s tossed in a bin and discover reusable alternatives to common single-use items. This hands-on experience highlights the impact of recycling and offers practical tips for reducing waste in everyday life.

  • 7:50 a.m. - Volunteers arrive.
