While living in the orient I watched the locals recycle everything. Waste food in one pile, paper in another, cans in another, bottles aluminum and so on. We would throw away the old pages (unclassified, unlike Hillary) of our technical manuals and a week later when ordering fish or meat in the markets our purchase would be wrapped in those very same pages Cans would become pots and pans. No glass bottles or pop cans were dispensed, instead they would fill a zip lock with ice and pour in the pop ,zip it shut and slide a straw in the corner and then recycle the pop bottle or can. nothing was thrown out the window on the roads!

Does ECUA have in place contracts to sell the recyclables to be generated?

We have been recycling for a while now but stopped when we found out the recyclables were going to the landfill anyway. I’ve been told it will actually start being recycled again beginning Sept. 26th. We keep a box in our wash room for cans, soda bottles, boxes and junk mail that is emptied into the recycle bin. It’s amazing how quickly this fills up yet our regular trash can is barely half full. At least we’re doing a little something and since we are not charged extra for the can, it’s no big deal. I just hoe that somewhere down the road, it will help.

I just wonder when recycling will become mandatory for all.
Not everyone wants to recycle. I hope this time the recycling project will be successful and profitable
