Plastic milk jugs provided students at Dutch Hill Elementary School with a recycling lesson — and an igloo.

Waste Management visited the school in honor of Earth Day. Students brought out milk jugs they had collected over a few weeks — crafting a large igloo in the meantime — to see what happens to the jugs when they leave the big green bins for recycling. Students also got a chance to climb in the driver’s seat of the recycling truck.
