Did you know that over the course of the last 15 years, Whiskeytown has recycled 4.2 million pounds of aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and glass bottles?! Recycling these items brought in $65,000 of revenue for the park!
Recycling provides a revenue source for Whiskeytown and also reduces the amounts of items going into landfills. Furthermore, recycling conserves energy – it takes much less energy to remake a can or bottle that has been recycled than it does from creating a can or bottle from raw products and materials.
When you are in the park, please do your part and place your cans and bottles in our recycling receptacles located throughout the park.
Aside from recycling, another sustainable practice that Whiskeytown utilizes is solar power.
