Major recycling conference to be held this fall
San Antonio will be the site of The Resource Recycling Conference this October. The conference, which focuses solely on municipal solid waste recycling, will bring together government officials, collectors, processors and end users. Compelling and comprehensive sessions will target recycling’s key issues and trends, including product stewardship, global warming, international markets and sustainability initiatives.
The conference is presented by the publisher of Resource Recycling, the industry magazine. In addition to numerous intriguing presentations, the conference includes an exhibit hall where numerous vendors will describe their services and equipment. In addition to the sessions and exhibits, attendees are invited to a reception in Old San Antonio sponsored by STAR, the state recycling association.
