Coke, NRC Team Up on Recycling

The Atlanta Business Chronicle reports on Coca-Cola’s agreement to fund a recycling bin grant in partnership with the National Recycle Coalition (NRC).

The grant program will be open to city and government organizations, but any for-profit or not-for-profit group that applies. The bins are expected to be featured at sporting events and music venues, as well as commercial locations.

The grant program is part of Atlanta-based Coca-Cola’s $60 million investment in recycling programs and initiatives in the United States.
