Oklahoma State Capitol Recycles

Sunday, May 23rd, 2010

The Oklahoma state Capitol Complex is getting serious about recycling!

New containers for the collection of aluminum and plastics will be delivered to all the Oklahoma State Capital Complex breakrooms as well as being placed near all vending machines.

I’m always thrilled when an organization gets not only serious about recycling, but organized!
