Re: Recyling
I do.
There are free public containers for glass (green, brown or white), paper (newspaper stuff or cardboard) and light metal as well as your own private containers for recyclable waste (for everything with a little green dot on the package), organic waste (pooh!), and all the rest (with costs).
If you mix it up the city works will fine you. So recycling is good for my florins chest.

Well here in Canada, we recycle almost eveyrthing, bottles and stuff in the blue bin, paper in the green bin, plants and bi-products in the other.

Re: Recyling
Plastic in one bin, aluminium in another, and glass (beer bottles) in a third. All put on the curb Thursday morning. The truck comes by, picks them up, and who knows after that. I also recycle used oil, CFL lights, and batteries, but I have to take that to the dump myself. I do my part, but for all I know the county just puts it all in one big pile.

Re: Recyling
Here in WI it's a two-bin system. The biggest impact on our garbage size, however, has been the composting. We're dumping all non-meat leftovers into a composting system we rigged up, with an eye toward free fertilizer for our gardens. THis has really lowered the size of our weekly bin.

Re: Recyling
In our city, everyone puts their recyclables into a single bin. Every other week (Tuesday for me and my roommate), the recycling people come by, empty the bin, and then sort out the material once they get to the recycling center. It's an easy and convenient system for us.

Re: Recyling
We do that too. We have a fairly large garden and about a pail of compost every two days, and much more when we're harvesting from our garden or cooking a lot so it definitely makes a big impact on the amount of garbage that we produce.Originally Posted by Lemur

Re: Recyling
I recycle when I can, at home it's pretty much just cans and bottles (both glass and plastic) and I guess the same when I'm at school. Wish there was more available for recycling paper but Hawaii is pretty slow on this whole recycling thing.
I guess at home (a coffee farm) we recycle all bones and organic stuff by tossing it in the fields or feeding it to our dog or chickens.

Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
