Super Afternoon at Bryn Pica Community Recycling Centre
June 11, 2010 Next Page »
Members of ABERDARE TREFOIL GUILD had an important appointment up the mountain above Llwydcoed recently. At Bryn Pica Recycling Centre they enjoyed an afternoon learning about recycling in the Cynon Valley.
In the visitor centre they watched a Powerpoint presentation on the importance of recycling and shown a video of the line where items are sorted etc. Glass recycling, cans recycling and a video by Tonyrefail Comprehensive School “Oceans of Waste”.
They donned fluorescent waistcoats and were then taken on a landfill SAFARI where they were shown what a landfill site looks like and how it is run. Whilst on the landfill safari they were shown how our refuse is disposed of and how landfill gas is extracted and turned into electricity.
All agreed that it was a super afternoon and everyone had gained a lot of information regarding all materials that can be recycled and ways in which the Recycling Centre deals with them.
