To the Editor

It is with great joy that we announce that the Canton Central Green Team is now knocking on doors in the community to get more families to drop off food scraps at the Village drop off site, located on Lincoln Street near the Ice Pavilion. 

Wish the children luck and greet them with a hearty hello if you are so fortunate as to be visited by them. The Green Team consists of 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th graders led by Megan Smith and Kimberly Newman who seek to improve the environment.

Given the climate emergency isn't going away by itself, diverting food scraps from the landfill where they turn into methane, a greenhouse gas more than 80 times as powerful as carbon dioxide, is a cheap and easy way to take action on this critical problem. Join over 60 village residents who take advantage of this free resource.
