Just In Time for the Holidays: "Healthy Homes, Healthy Holidays" Program
Ever wonder what happens to those plastic containers you toss in the recycling bin? The answer may shock you. Only about 6% of all plastic waste is ever recycled. The rest is incinerated or goes into landfills and ends up polluting the environment. What can communities do to decrease this waste? The League of Women Voters of the Cooperstown Area (LWVCA) has some ideas, just in time for the upcoming holiday season.
On Thursday, December 4 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:15 p.m., in the Clark Sports Center Community Room (124 County Route 52, Cooperstown), the LWVCA is presenting "Healthy Homes, Healthy Holidays." The event is for everyone looking to reduce the use of and exposure to plastics in their lives.
Leagues nationwide are working with immigrant communities to protect fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution. These include the right to due process, fair treatment under the law, and freedom from unlawful detention.
