SUMMARY:Texas Recycles Day is November 15
DESCRIPTION:What is TexasRecyclesDay.org?\n\n\n\n\nA statewide campaign for recycling outreach celebrated each November 15th (launched in November 2021)\, and scheduled around how Texans live\, work\, and recycle regularly. \nHow Does Contamination Hurt Recycling? \nItems like clothing\, shoes\, and broken toys slow the whole process down.

Create your own content\n\n\nBase your posts on the recycling theme for the month. \nUse #TexasRecycles and #RecycleRight on your posts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. Use our ready-to-go assets\n\n\nQuickly post content for the recycling theme for the month. \nCheck back for here for updates. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3.
