Use the trash cans for trash; take your junk mail home and recycle it.
It's not political. It's environmental. Too many people think the environmental awareness thing is political. I want this planet to still be around for my grandchild's children.

ABSOLUTELY! 
All too many think that since they're only one person and so many others don't think about recycling or the environment...why should they even bother?
The answer to that of course, is history is replete with a plethora of success stories of changing the status quo for the better, because just a few people at the beginning cared...and wanted a better future for their children/grandchildren.
We no longer read/see rivers catching fire because of the pollutants and unregulated dumping, and I for one...am darned glad about that.
And yet, there are still those of course who believe companies/communities/entities will police themselves and not put profits/money first...so those regulations aren't really needed.
Simply amazing.
