California Hispanic Chambers of Commerce Promote Recycling

The California Department of Conservation (DOC) is teaming up with the state’s Hispanic Chambers of Commerce (CHCC) to create The Hispanic Business Recycling Program, which will promote beverage container recycling programs for member businesses.

The program will begin with a pilot program with the San Francisco, San Joaquin and Orange County Hispanic Chambers. The DOC will participate in fundraisers and mixers sponsored by the CHCC to help businesses get started recycling.

In addition to beverage containers, paper is another product businesses should consider recycling, considering each employee goes through an average of 1.5 pounds per day. Learn more about starting a business recycling program.
