FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Nov. 5, 2014
DEP LAUNCHES 'RECYCLING SELFIE' CHALLENGE
~Submit photos to the DEP Facebook page for a chance to win state park passes~
TALLAHASSEE - The Florida Department of Environmental Protection
wants to see how you recycle. Submit a selfie to our Facebook page between Nov.
5 and Nov. 25 and “like" the page to be entered to win four state park
entrance passes. In your selfie, show us how you recycle – the more creative the
better. We would love to see all forms of recycling, from re-purposing water
bottles to decorating with shoe boxes.
To submit your
selfie, send it in a private message to the DEP Facebook page. We will post the
pictures we receive online daily.
At the end
of the month, all submissions will be entered into a random drawing to determine
the winners. Participants can boost their chances of winning by submitting
multiple selfies over the course of the month, but only one photo per day will
be entered into the drawing.
Different
ways to recycle include:
- Refilling
plastic water bottles;
- Reusing
materials to create home decorations/school projects;
- Buying
recycled material; and
- Reusing
boxes from purchases.
