The Chicago Recycling Coalition first began as the Coalition for Appropriate Waste Disposal. One of its initial efforts was advocating for a landfill moratorium in Chicago. In the early nineties, responsible source-separated municipal recycling was advocated. The Chicago Recycling Coalition is an organization of people who believe that effective recycling and reuse programs are integral to a healthy environment. For over two decades, we have provided recycling education and information to Chicago’s citizens while advocating sound recycling policies for our city, county, and state.
