The Otsego County Chamber of Commerce and Lions Club of Cooperstown are the latest to partner with Otsego County Conservation Association in a combination recycling/fundraising effort. The Otsego County Chamber will have a collection bin at their office in Oneonta and Rich McCaffery is spearheading the effort on behalf of the Cooperstown Lions. Through this program, inkjet cartridges and small electronics are collected and sent to Planet Green Recycle. Planet Green re-manufacturers or recycles the items, keeping tons of plastic, metal, and toxic compounds out of the landfill, and reimburses the contributing organizations. OCCA earns money for the items they ship.  For more information call OCCA at  (607) 547-4488
