Go Green Greater La Grange wants to help local residents reduce the amount of trash that ends up in the solid waste stream. Towards this end, we are providing a variety of resources and ideas for recycling, reusing, reducing, and rethinking consumption. If you have questions or want to suggest other local resources, please contact Go Green Greater La Grange at info@gogreenglg.org.

In addition to the local resources below, you may also want to visit the Chicago Environmentalists website, which provides an extensive collection of resources primarily in Chicago, as well as other useful information.
