What can be recycled?

Hopefully your Spanish is good enough that you can understand these images. They will NOT take batteries, light bulbs, ceramics, used paper, paper plates/glasses; window glass or windshields; styrofoam; or construction debris. 
It's also useful to know how long these things last in the environment and why it's so important to recycle!

About Recycling Batteries in Grecia

By Irina Just
I was asked to report on where to recycle batteries. 
In Grecia, the small ones (AA, AAA, 9 V, etc.) can be recycled at ICE. Just show the guard your bag and empty it in the recycling container in the lobby. 
Larger batteries - we had three huge “battery back-ups” from our computer and TV, which finally died - they were a bit harder to expose of. We finally were told about “Super Batterias”, a store on the radial, towards the pista. On the left-hand side as your heading out of Grecia, shortly after the Matrix exercise center, approximately 100 m past the CCSS offices - and indeed, they took our huge and heavy batteries and promised to recycle them. Mission accomplished!
