AMERICA RECYCLES DAY THE VICE PRESIDENT WASHINGTON Please join me in celebrating. America's environmental accomplishments during the first annual America Recycles Day, November 15, 1997. As Honorary Chair, I look forward to the opportunity to lead a united effort aimed at reminding and encouramng Americans everywhere to learn more and do even more recycling and purchasing recycled content products. With its theme, "Keep Recycling Working: Buy Recycled," America Recycles Day applauds the efforts that have resulted in one of our most significant environmental achievements in the last twenty years --the establishment of thousands of recycling programs all over the country. In addition, this year's America Recycles Day serves as a reminder that each one of us builds on this important achievement whenever we choose products made from recycled materials. The U.S. government has been purchasing recycled content products for years. Over the past four years, President Clinton and I have asked federal agencies to re -double their recycling efforts. Last year alone, 64 percent of all the paper products the federal government bought contained post -consumer content material. All of us must continue the proud tradition of Americans working together to make our nation better. We must buy recycled at home; request recycled from the companies with which we work; and demand recycled from our local, state and federal governments. Have a great America Recycles Day, and remember: "Keep Recycling Working: Buy Recycled."
