In this hour of Connections—guest hosted by WXXI’s Jasmin Singer—we delve into a seasonal yet significant question: How the heck do we recycle our holiday things?

Join us as we uncover common recycling mistakes people make during this festive season. We discuss strategies against “wishcycling” and key tips for recycling holiday items like wrapping paper, gift boxes, Christmas trees, and holiday lights. Our conversation also covers special considerations for recycling electronics and holiday decorations and the role of individual actions in reducing the holiday waste footprint.

Our guests:

Jasmin Singer is the host of WXXI’s Weekend Edition and Environmental Connections, as well as a guest host for Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and Connections.
Megan Mack is the executive producer of "Connections with Evan Dawson" and live/televised engagement programming.
