NERC’s Fall Conference – Great Discussions & Information Exchange

Capture the Energy of Recycling was the theme of NERC’s Fall Conference on October 27 – 28 in Northampton, MA.  For one and a half days, recycling professionals discussed the importance and impact of the energy savings that the use of recycled-content feedstock for manufacturing has on the U.S. and the world’s energy needs.  Eric Harris of the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, Inc. challenged all of us to celebrate and share this message with our legislators, communities, and colleagues to continue growing and supporting recycling and the green jobs it creates.
