Sustainable Education

Not sure on what you can or can't recycle? Not to worry - Clarke Environmental was at the St. Charles Fine Art Show as our Zero Waste Ambassadors! They were onsite helping attendees with what is recyclable and what is not, as well as educating and inspiring others to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives.

Ditch the Plastic

At the 2023 St. Charles Fine Art Show, we gave out Responsibly Rain aluminum water bottles sponsored by Theriault Booth LLC. Attorneys at Law. These water bottles are BPA free and made in the USA, making it an eco-friendlier option as aluminum is 100% recyclable. In fact, it's estimated that nearly 75% of all aluminum produced is still in use today

Did you know: Aluminum is more thermally conductive than plastic, making it the better option if you want your drink to get cold fast!

Refresh Sustainably

Thanks to Culligan Water, you didn't have to grab a new water bottle once you ran out of water at show They provided two water stations where patrons went in order to refill their aluminum water bottle.

Responsible Paper

All the paper products used at the St. Charles Fine Art Show were printed by West Valley Graphics. West Valley Graphics uses 10% recyclable paper, and is FSC certified. They've also invested in eco-friendly printers, and they use local resources to minimize on shipping cartons and CO2.

An FSC Certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.

Recycling Made Easy

With the help of Lakeshore Recycling Systems, there was designated Recycling Bins onsite at the St. Charles Fine Art Show, making it easy to dispose of recyclable materials properly.
