Who cares if it's good for the environment? We shouldn't be forced to do good things, and if it were to become mandatory here I would go out of my way to make sure I didn't recycle. Also, thanks to our lovely governor, we get tons of your trash. YaY

i probably should have used a different term .. better 'tennants of the earth'
is what i was shooting for... when we're forced - by law - to examine our own waste .. some of us might make enough better choices to start making a difference.

i recycle far more food waste than i did before ... and we tend to avoid over packaged materials. every little bit helps - hopefully overall the social conciousness will be raised enough to make it a new standard of living.


I have a natural adversity to authority and big brother myself - but some things make enough sense to be made into law...

I googled it. from what I read, it's a Toronto problem and has nothing to do with the limited space for the garbage. more to do with morons... shipping it to michigan by truck is ridiculous.

Recycling is encouraged, but not forced. But if they find anything that cannot be recycled in our recycling bins, they wont collect it. But around here, it suddenly came out that when they couldn't be bothered with the fuss anymore, all of the town's stuff we recycled to try and do our bit was being sent to the same landfill as the ordinary stuff. :mad:

It's okay, maybe you guys can work out a deal where you can pump your sewage up there in exchange :p
