DEAP helped imple­ment comprehensive recycling in downtown Palo Alto, offering businesses the opportu­nity to recycle white paper, computer paper, cans (tin and aluminum), CA redemption plastic, glass, newspaper and corrugated cardboard. The service was free. Recycling collec­tion containers were strategically placed throughout downtown to be shared by businesses. Each month, 2.5 tons of recyclables were recovered. See Action vol 4 no 1.

Project Leaders: Myra Nissen, Jim Baer, Debbie Mytels
