Although I am sometimes led to believe that "Better Government is often less Government," I was pleased to read this item concerning our federal government in a recent Resource Recycling newsletter. It addressed the government using some of our taxpayer dollars to help the recycling efforts. In my opinion, a much better use than how some are used.
“Recycling issues have hit the national stage with unprecedented fervor in recent weeks," the article read. "Citing recycling market challenges and growing plastic pollution, lawmakers are advancing legislation and pressuring government agencies to take action.”
Not only was a waste reduction and recycling advancement bill introduced in Congress, but also a number of members of Congress recently asked federal agencies to get more involved in improving the country’s recycling system.
