What is a Master Recycler?

Master Recyclers take an eight-week course on the latest information on waste prevention and recycling.  They then share this information to their neighbors in Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington county. There are almost 1,000 Master Recyclers, volunteering more than 24,000 hours.
