Hotel Recycling Project

 

 

Orange County is home to thousands of hotel rooms.  The amount of trash hauled away to landfill sites costs hotels a lot of money.  In 1990 Orange County Energy Extension Agent Jo Townsend talked with Donna Green-Townsend about an award-winning hotel recycling project designed to save the hotel industry money while doing something positive for the environment. This story ran on the statewide IFAS television program Florida File in 1990.
