The Calgary council has just proposed using wheelies for re-cycling and
charging us about £10 per month. What a fuss that's causing!
We have separate recycling bins in every burb for newspapers, cardboard etc,
milk bottles (plastic) etc, and these are very popular. We pay a deposit on
booze and pop bottles so there is a very high rate of recycling for those -
the boy scouts come round after xmas to collect them to raise money, for
example.


I can remember getting tuppence back on every pop bottle.


Such an obvious thing. It makes you wonder why we ever let the idea
fade!

Avoid the rush at the last judgement. Be converted now instead!
