Rumpke Recycling Center

Join Go Green Granville for a special behind-the-scenes tour of the Rumpke Recycling Center where the aluminum cans, glass jars and other recyclable materials collected in Granville are sorted using artificial intelligence-assisted technology. Rumpke recently opened this new $100 million, 226,000-square-foot material recycling facility which is described as the “largest and most technologically advanced” in North America.
Rumpke Tour Notes: There is ample guest parking in front of the building. As an active plant, there will likely be substantial truck traffic near the driveway, so use caution when entering & exiting. When you arrive, please tell the receptionist you are with Go Green Granville. Please dress casually and comfortably and note that temperatures may vary. For your safety, please wear sturdy closed-toe shoes with backs (no sandals, flip-flops or heels).
Because access to the recycling facility is limited, we kindly request that you RSVP for this event.

Decarbonization through Electrification
SAVE THE DATE: June 18, 2025
DENISON UNIVERSITY | ROOM LOCATION TO BE ANNOUNCED
As renewable energy becomes cheaper and Ohio’s electric grid gets cleaner every year, electrifying your household’s major energy uses can significantly reduce your carbon & greenhouse gas emissions without costing a fortune. Meanwhile, efficient electric technologies like heat pumps and EVs are becoming more affordable than ever, especially if you can take advantage of tax credits or other financial incentives. But you don’t want to be trying to learn about all this in an emergency when your car dies or your A/C goes out!
Go Green Granville & Electrify Central Ohio will help you start developing your own tailored plan for transitioning your household off of fossil fuels and onto low-carbon energy sources. Learn more about how we can help you go green!

Madeline Fleisher: Madeline is an environmental and energy attorney who works as senior environmental counsel for Owens Corning. She blogs and/or rants more about clean energy issues at her website, the Climate Smart Handbook.
