Although I bought my Village of Amelia home in Feb. I was just able to permanently relocate slightly over 4 weeks ago. I've always been in favor of recycling but here the requirements were a bit more than I was accustomed to with the special bags and days. Never-the-less, I have abided by the rules and I was quite surprised to find my recycle items account for 2 - 3 times more than the usual trash. Maybe some of us, myself included, were not being as diligent in our "green" efforts as we thought. Yes, we have a large truck, the same size as the regular trash hauler, come through but I can see where its needed in my neighborhood.

We're the biggest "throw away society" in the world. It takes only a second to decide which bag the item belongs in. Let's recover what we can. The minor cost we pay now could be huge for the future.
