Recycling and Solid Waste Management Educational Series. Learn about
key issues, successful projects and best management practices to
create stellar waste management programs. Conference calls, in
conjunction with power point presentations, allow you to hear from
experts around the country on what works, what doesn't and how to
make your program more successful. The format for the calls include
a formal presentation followed by a question and answer session and
discussion time. The goal of the Resource Conservation Challenge Web
Academy is to give you information and tools to decrease waste,
increase reuse, recycling and pollution prevention and conserve
energy and materials. REGISTER: on-line at
