Arlington, Va. – The Washington Capitals will host Go Green Night Presented by BioSafe and Coca-Cola Consolidated on Thursday, April 4, versus the Pittsburgh Penguins.
During Go Green Night, Coca-Cola Consolidated and the Capitals will educate fans on how they can support a cleaner environment through green-themed activations:
- All fans in attendance will receive a Capitals reusable grocery bag.
- Throughout the evening, fans can bring their trash to stations located on the 100-level concourse at sections 105 and 115 and volunteers will sort it into recycling, compost and landfill bins.
- After the game, Coke Consolidated volunteers will collect bottles and cans from the stands to recycle. Most of the plastic bottles will be sent to a recycling partner and then returned to the Coke Consolidated infrastructure as new bottles.
“We are excited to partner with the Washington Capitals in an effort to reduce the amount of waste that is sent to the landfill,” said Todd Marty, Senior Public Affairs and Sustainability Director, Coca-Cola Consolidated. “By providing waste sorting stations, volunteers and fans will support these efforts and learn more about waste reduction.”
