NEW JERSEY’S 2017 RECYCLING LOGO AND SLOGAN CONTEST: Students – Act On Your Commitment to Recycling by Inspiring Others!
This April marks the 30th anniversary of New Jersey's Statewide Mandatory Source Separation and Recycling Act, which established a recycling mandate and made New Jersey a national recycling leader. New Jersey was the first state in the country to implement such a law and we are still one of the top recyclers in the country.
To celebrate this milestone, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is sponsoring New Jersey’s 2017 Recycling Logo and Slogan Contest. High school students in grades 9 through 11 are challenged to submit logo designs and slogans that inspire and motivate New Jersey citizens of all ages to recycle their waste at home, school, work, and in the community. The entry should feature a memorable logo and a compelling word or short phrase (slogan). It should focus on recycling and be attention‐grabbing, simple, creative and unique. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS JUNE 2ND. One winning logo design and slogan will be selected and will be used as part of DEP’s future statewide recycling outreach efforts, which will include various print and online media. Please go to www.nj.gov/dep/seeds/rlsc2017.htm for submission requirements, entry form and other important information. Questions about the contest should be directed to DEP employee Victoria Kerekes at (609) 984‐6906 or [email protected].
