Don't kid yourself about recycling. It doesn't really work. Reducing and reusing is the way to go.
Or, the Villages could choose to send ALL of its waste, and un-recyclables - to a waste-to-energy plant where it is incinerated and the energy is recovered as electricity that is sent back for us to run our air conditioners - i.e. sustainable, clean, renewable energy.
