Welcome to the Solid Waste Management Coordinating Board web site. Since 1990, we have worked to increase the efficiency and environmental effectiveness of the Twin City metro region's solid waste management system.
The Rethink Recycling (formerly Green Guardian) campaign was launched
in 2003 to help citizens living in the six-county Twin Cities metro
area understand the urgent need to make environmentally-responsible
purchasing and disposal decisions in their daily lives. By giving
citizens the information needed to make these decisions, we can reverse
the ever-growing waste stream and protect the environmental health of
the six-county Twin Cities metro area.
Thank you for your interest in the Rethink Recycling tool kit.
Participation by county and municipal recycling staff, recycling
service providers and other organizations is the key to the success of
this campaign. By working together and being consistent with our
messages we will be able to break through the communications clutter.
Thank you for your interest in the Electronics Recycling campaign
tool kit. Participation by county and municipal staff, electronics
recyclers and collectors, and other organizations is key to the success
of this campaign.
