Default Re: recycling

Ah recycling. As an environmental engineer, this is a topic near and dear to my heart. There is indeed a severe lack of recycling in these parts....and in other parts of the country as well these days. The questions is....why? Aside from the environmental good it does.....it's a business. At times, as a business, recycling is prone to be anemic during down market conditions. It often requires local governement subsidies to sustain a community recycling program. Would y'all pay more for general trash pick-up to support a recycling program?
