We are careful to recycle everything possible. I was surprised to find out when we first purchased in The Villages, that there was no recycling available. It is much, much better now.
At our northern house, we have many streams of garbage. Recycling must be sorted by product, newspapers are sorted separately from glass and plastic, etc. As well, every family is issued a composter, and the contents of the composter (in special bags) is picked up with garbage and recycling.
We can really make a difference if we're all diligent about composting and recycling.
