“Green Your Business” is the Topic of April Luncheon

“Green Your Business” will be the theme for the Marion Women’s Business Council luncheon on Monday, April 10, 2017 at 11:30 a.m.

Angela Carbetta, Marion County Recycling & Litter Prevention Director, promises lively trash talk and recycled jokes, along with earth-friendly door prizes for all members and guests in attendance. She will share tips about recycling in the workplace, sustainable purchasing standards, and building community pride for companies of all types and sizes.

“From recycling cans in the break room to organizing a neighborhood litter clean-up,” said Carbetta, “you can make a difference while you make a living. Recycling means business!”

Known to school children as The Litter Lady, Carbetta has served as Marion County’s environmental educator and recycling coordinator since 2001. The 2013 Athena Award winner, Carbetta is also the founding director of Keep Marion County Beautiful, an affiliate of Keep America Beautiful.
