Texas Recycles Day is an annual statewide public awareness campaign to promote the environmental and economic benefits of the Four R’s – reduce, reuse, recycle, repair. Texas Recycles Day is an offshoot of America Recycles Day, which educates people about the importance of recycling to our economy and environmental well-being and helps to motivate occasional recyclers to become everyday recyclers.
