Description

An ongoing Metro Waste Authority objective is to help area businesses and consumers relearn how to deal with and identify waste. For this report, we translated old-fashioned flash cards into an appropriate device for sharing, communication, and learning about MWA services and goals. The reports were distributed with preaddressed envelopes. Recipients were urged to forward the cards to a local school after reading the report. Nearly 80 percent did.
