Eco-Innovators and procrastinators have more time to submit their recycled creation to the City of Largo's Recycled Innovations Contest. This online contest encourages innovators to make use-able items with the contents of their trash can.
All entries must be made of 75 percent or more recycled material or material that would otherwise be discarded. Contrary to a recycled art show, Recycled Innovations are items that may be reused in daily activities. Accepted entries will be functional items made of materials that can be diverted from the waste stream.
