The Lone Tree Sustainability Team was created by a dedicated group of citizens and businesses driven to make the world a better place for all.
We have 3 goals:
1. Education: creating opportunities for learning about sustainability and ideas to address it
2. Actions: individual and collective actions to address sustainability needs
3. Legacy: influencing and supporting long-term decisions that align with sustainable solutions

How To Recycle
It's Not As Easy As You Think
While it's easy to just pitch something we think is recycleable into the bin, it can actually do more harm than good if it's not recycleable. Putting in incorrect recycleable material can "pollute" the entire batch of material, making all of it unrecycleable. Please ensure you know the "Yes" and "No" of recycle.
