The RecycleCT Foundation has launched an app that will allow 海角换妻 residents to discover what items do and don鈥檛 belong in the recycling bin.

The RecycleCT Wizard App is designed to help 海角换妻 residents understand the importance of recycling as well.

鈥淪o it鈥檚 really to provide an easier way for residents and others to find out what is acceptable in your recycling bin and what is not acceptable,鈥 said Sherill Baldwin, an environmental analyst for the 海角换妻 Department of Energy and Environmental Protection.

Baldwin says that though the information is available online, the new application is easily accessible, which will help users address concerns about recycling.

鈥淪o when you open up the app, you get to a landing page, and there you can actually see the top four items, and these are the top items within the last 30 days, so you can see what other people think is confusing, but you can type in any item you want,鈥 she said.

Baldwin said the state hopes to reduce contamination in the mixed recycling stream.

鈥淥ur mix recyclables all go in, but we want, we only want recyclables in that container,鈥 she said, adding that what RecycleCT doesn鈥檛 want is trash and other contaminants.

The application can be downloaded from all app stores. Besides English and Spanish, users who speak French, Simplified Chinese and Portuguese will be able to use the app.
