"Recycle Your Eclipse Glasses Safely: Expert Advice and Options"
TL;DR
After the solar eclipse, consider donating your eclipse glasses to organizations like Astronomers Without Borders, which collects and redistributes them to underserved communities for future eclipses. Warby Parker is also collecting used glasses for donation. If you prefer to keep them, eclipse glasses never expire, and you can remove the lenses and recycle the cardboard frames. This helps reduce waste and ensures that others can safely view upcoming celestial events.
