As others have so intelligently pointed out, exactly what real 'trash/garbage' do people have to get rid of when checking their mail...unless maybe it's dog poop?


CNM, the main problem I see with that is that people will put trash in the recycling bins. Or worse--poop bags. (There's always someone, unfortunately.) Then TV will get discouraged and take them away.


Our country is relatively new to recycling. People are loathe to change something they've been doing most of their lives. It's a challenge. Hopefully the younger generation will take over...
