what YOU can do!

Looking back at our blog the Recycling Rangers have noticed a common trend. Negativity. We haven't really been impressed with any initiatives we've seen throughout Penang, Malaysia, and neighboring countries.  So rather than been negative nancys the Rangers are going to tell you how you can recycle in Penang and make a difference.

Check out them Rangers. So serious about changing the world. If you don't want to mess with this...RECYCLE! 

1. Refer to our early post about what is recyclable and how to organize these items and sort as directed!


2. Gather you neighbors and encourage them to make a difference too! Whether you live in an apartment or neighborhood asks neighbors to gather their recycling products the same way you did! The upside of have a community initiative is that it is easier for you to have your recycling collected because you can...


3.  Contact recycling contractors to come pick up your items!


To make this even easier for you the Rangers have found a list of contractors around Penang. So who ya gonna call? RECYCLING CONTRACTORS!
