What can be done to get restaurants and large housing projects to start recycling?
My apartment complex has 3 dumpsters. 1 for garbage and 2 for recycling. I live in a very small town (pop. 1200). I think you would need to contact the garbage collectors/recycling pickup providor in your area, as well as management of your community and see if they could put some recycling bins out. As for the restaurants, that’d be more difficult. If you have the separate containers out, people will use them. We started a recycling program in my school when I was in high school. We had boxes in each room for paper and a garbage can with a round hole in the lid in the cafeteria for pop cans. Our group went around and emptied them once a week and put it out for pick-up.
