Recycle on the Go is an EPA initiative to encourage recycling in public places such as parks, stadiums, convention centers, airports and other transportation hubs, shopping centers, and at special events.
Recycle on the Go is part of EPA’s Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC), a nationwide effort to renew and revitalize the nation’s goals of waste reduction, reuse, and recycling. One of the RCC's goals is to help the nation achieve a recycling rate of 40 percent by 2011.
Recycle on the Go will assist in reaching the RCC’s 40 percent recycling goal by:
- Encouraging development of a recycling infrastructure for away-from-home collection
- Increasing the amount of waste collected for recycling
- Promoting a culture of recycling by making it convenient, available, and cost effective
