Elemental Mercury Collection and Reclamation Program
"Since January of 1998, Bowling Green State University (BGSU) in conjunction with Rader Environmental Services, Inc (RES), the Ohio EPA (Northwest and Southwest District Offices - Division of Emergency and Remedial Response), Toledo Environmental Services, and other governmental agencies, have conducted an elemental mercury collection and reclamation program. The program is designed to remove sources of non-contaminated elemental mercury (thermometers, thermostats, and other mercury-containing devices) from residents, academic institutions, health care facilities, businesses, and other locations where elemental mercury might be found. The program is free of charge."

Ohio Oil & Gas Energy Education Program
The Ohio Oil and Gas Energy Education Program (OOGEEP) is a non-profit educational program that was established through Ohio legislation and is funded by Ohio’s oil and gas producers and royalty owners through a voluntary assessment on the production of all crude oil and natural gas produced in Ohio. One of the missions of the program is to facilitate educational programs for the oil and gas industry, and to encourage oil and gas education curriculum in classrooms. They are very willing to work with teachers, and offer many resources for use in the classroom!
