Education Programs

 

 

 

The Rhonda Renee Recycles Show is an interactive, music and game show for elementary schools in Leon County. The Rhonda Renee Recycles Show is a 30-45 minute (assembly-style) presentation to "talk trash" with the students of Leon County. Students will learn where our garbage goes, how we can make less garbage, and what can be recycled. Presentations are free for schools in Leon County. Call Leon County's Education Coordinator to schedule Rhonda Renee Recycles at your school.

606-1827 or gentryc@LeonCountyFL.gov.

Do you want to learn more about Solid Waste, Waste Reduction and Recycling?

Invite our Community Education Coordinator to your classroom or community group to "talk trash". Students will learn about waste stewardship by reducing the amount of garbage we make.

Leon County operates the Solid Waste Management Facility and the Transfer Station to handle solid waste. Both facilities play a vital role in the Leon County Integrated Solid Waste Management System.  The Recycling Program provides FREE public education programs on solid waste management and the role that YOU, our residents, play. 

Solid waste management is an issue that affects everybody. Leon County produces 800-1,000 tons of garbage daily. More than half of that garbage can be reused or recycled.

Some easily recyclable items can sit in a landfill for up to 1,000 years. By making sure we maximize recycling, we help reduce the need for more landfills.  Recyclable products such as paper, glass, aluminum, and steel can be made into new products that you buy every day. 

Would you like to know more? Call Carole Gentry at 606-1827 to set up a FREE presentation at your school or community group or to schedule a landfill tour for your group.
