Culver City Program Aims to Educate Community About Pollution, Recycling

Reusing resources and safely disposing of household waste are among the topics explored in multimedia presentations offered by the Culver City Public Works Department.

The city Public Works Department has launched an environmental education program to teach residents, businesses and students about the impact of pollution and waste on Culver City.

Multimedia presentations on topics that include reusing natural resources, mitigating storm runoff and preventing environmental damage from household products are available from the department's Environmental Programs and Operations Division (EPO).

Each presentation runs for about 30 minutes and aims to increase the community's awareness about environmental issues facing Culver City and other municipalities. Viewers can also learn how to switch to more environmentally-sustainable practices at home and work.
