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!
