"Maximizing Your Solar Eclipse Glasses: Recycling, Reusing, and Future Viewing"

Originally Published 1 year ago — by CNN

Solar eclipse glasses that meet the safety standard ISO 12312-2 can be reused for future eclipses, including the 2026 event visible over Greenland, Iceland, Spain, Russia, and parts of Europe, Africa, and North America, as well as the 2044 eclipse over the contiguous United States. However, damaged or older glasses should be discarded, and organizations like Eclipse Glasses USA and Astronomers Without Borders are collecting used glasses for donation to schools and individuals in areas where future eclipses will be visible.
