"Recycling Eclipse Glasses in Austin: What You Need to Know"

After the solar eclipse, Austin will collect used eclipse glasses to donate to Astronomers Without Borders, which repurposes them for future eclipse viewing in underserved communities worldwide. Recycling bins will be placed across the city, and the nonprofit is also fundraising to ship the glasses globally. The initiative aims to prevent the glasses from ending up in landfills and allow others less fortunate to safely experience celestial events.
