Bridgeport Eyes New Recycling Program

Bridgeport Mayor Thaddeus Pruskowski asked council to consider implementing a proposed paper recycling program, The Paper Retriever, which promotes recycling by placing green and yellow Paper retriever bins in highly visible areas at schools, churches and other nonprofit organizations, which are then paid for by recyclable paper they and members of their surrounding community collect.

According to www.paperretriever.com, organizations use the money they earn for playground refurbishing beautification efforts, library enhancements, scholarships, field and mission trips and team uniforms.

More information on the Paper Retriever process can be on their website.
