Today is #NationalButtonBatteryAwarenessDay. A single button battery can cause life-altering injuries if ingested. Keep all spare button batteries out of children’s reach. When it’s time to replace the battery, wrap the used one in tape before disposing. If it’s a lithium button battery, you can responsibly dispose of it by dropping it off at one of the #SWA’s seven Home Chemical & Recycling Centers in #PalmBeachCounty or retailer drop-off location near you.

June 1 is #WorldReefAwarenessDay, a reminder that what we throw AWAY doesn’t go “away.” For #PalmBeachCounty, protecting our reefs starts with responsible waste management.

The #SWA works year-round to reduce litter, prevent pollution and keep harmful materials out of our waterways. When trash and chemicals are not disposed of responsibly, they can travel through storm drains and canals to the ocean, threatening coral reefs and marine life.

Residents can make a difference by #recycling right, reducing single-use plastics and using proper disposal programs for household hazardous waste.

Healthy reefs begin with clean communities. Learn More: https://t.co/7n0vMz6ZJI
