Summaries

Summary Sentence: S.O.S will be collecting plastic grocery, produce, and ziploc bags from students and exchanging them for reusable mesh bags.

Full Summary: Want to do something productive with that plastic bag of plastic bags sitting in your kitchen? Give them to us on Tech Walkway and get a reusuable produce bag as reward! A team of SOS volunteers will be collecting plastic bags to be included in an interactive whale shark sculpture coming to the Georgia Aquarium this summer! In exchange for your help in bringing this art to life and reducing landfill waste, you will receive a reusable produce bag for your donation of plastic bags. You will never again have to use a plastic one for grabbing your favorite fruits and veggies.
