Happy Earth Day!

Today, we celebrate our beautiful planet and commit to taking action for a healthier, more sustainable future. One way we can make a meaningful impact on our environment is through asphalt (or pavement) recycling!

Asphalt recycling is the process of reusing old asphalt pavement to create new, durable surfaces. It’s a fantastic way to reduce waste and conserve natural resources. Did you know that asphalt is the most recycled material in the US? It is a testament to our ability to innovate and find sustainable solutions to everyday challenges.

One method of asphalt recycling is full-depth recycling (FDR). This rebuilds worn-out asphalt pavements by recycling existing materials on-site. This process saves money and resources by eliminating the need to haul in new materials or dispose of old ones. The improved stabilization leads to stronger, longer-lasting roads that benefit communities and the environment.

While we celebrate Earth Day, which was first recognized on April 22, 1970, keep in mind the importance of sustainability and the role everyone can play in protecting our planet. From recycling initiatives to reducing plastic waste, every effort counts. Together, let’s create a better world for future generations.

Join us in honoring Earth Day by taking steps to protect our planet. What are some actions your community has taken? Let’s inspire each other to make a difference!
