RECYCLING?  AREN’T WE ALREADY DOING THAT?  The answer is:  Yes and No!  While we were still FUSS, we worked on implementing recycling through the City curbside program.  We had a number of problems with it, so we contracted with County Waste, a private company, solving some of the problems.  But we’re far from having the ideal recycling program.

Did you know that Helen has to fish trash out of the recycling bins?  Are there times you haven’t been able to find a recycling bin?  Are you confused about what should and shouldn’t go in the recycling bin?  What about composting (recycling organics)?

Green Sanctuary is again addressing itself to solving some of our recycling problems.  We’re working with Helen to pinpoint where the problems are and then, working together, to find solutions.  We hope to have a Recycling Table presentation ready for you on Sunday, November 6, just on time for America Recycles Day on November 15.  In the meantime, please let us know of any specific problems you’ve had, and your suggestions for solutions.  Nancy Peterson of the Green Sanctuary.
