"Let's Tackle Recycling" December 19, 2010

At the final three Steelers home games of the 2010 regular season, PRC and its partners will collect recyclables at tailgating parties outside Heinz Field.
The "Let's Tackle Recycling" campaign -funded by the Alcoa Foundation-will gather aluminum cans, glass containers, and plastic bottles and cups on December 12, 19 and 23.
The effort will include distributing blue plastic bags to those entering six designated parking lots along General Robinson Street and staffing a "drop off" station outside the stadium. Each game's collection effort will benefit a local non-profit organization that will receive the proceeds from marketing the recyclable materials collected at the event, and the non-profits will assist with providing manpower on site.

"Let's Tackle Recycling" is sponsored by PRC and the Alcoa Foundation in partnership with Alco Parking, City of Pittsburgh Environmental Services, Greenstar, Pittsburgh Steelers and the Sports & Exhibition Authority.
