Hi, I’m Lern!
I am the afternoon drive host at KSHE 95 from 2pm to 6pm. While I definitely have a love for radio and rock music, I am even more passionate about taking care of our beautiful planet! Recycling is a great and super easy way to make a positive impact on the Earth. Keep scrolling for more information on what to recycle, how to recycle it, and more!
Check out my show on KSHE for even more information about recycling. We only get one Earth — let’s take care of it together.

LERN SAYS:
Special recycling events are a great way to clear out some of the old clutter in your house or garage — recycling facilities can accept a pretty extensive list of items at these events that you can’t throw away in your own bins. They’ll make sure your items don’t end up in a landfill and some will even unload your vehicle for you onsite. Some items (mainly TVs and old fridges) may require a recycling fee, but it’s a small price to pay to make a big difference!
