A recycling Czar for New York City - hooray!
2012-05-11 03:01:00 It's about time, eh? In a sign that New York City is getting serious about improving its poor recycling record, the city's Department of Sanitation is appointing a recycling industry innovator as its new "deputy commissioner for recycling and sustainability." The department plans to formally announce next week that Ron Gonen, 37, is assuming the newly created position to help the Bloomberg administration meet its goal of at least doubling the city's recycling rate from the current 15 percent by the year 2017. Mr. Gonen is a founder of Recyclebank, a company that awards points to consumers for recycling that they can redeem at local and national restaurants, stores and other retailers. He is also a co-founder of an environmental services firm that helps bring renewable energy to sport stadiums . This is great news to get NYC crankin' towards the #1 slot in the country with regard to Green Initiatives. So far, San Francisco is kickin' our butts!

Tainted Recycling
2012-04-11 15:00:00 You hear 'recycling', what do you think of? Minus climate change and the color green, I'll take a stab and say maybe you thought of aluminum (perhaps, in particular, aluminum soda cans). There's good reason for this. Aluminum recycling is among the most common and beneficial recycling processes
Bloomie tries to bring NYC recycling efforts up to speed.
2012-04-05 08:14:00 New York City still lags behind other major metropolitan cities in the U.S. when it comes to comprehensive recycling efforts. But at least some sort of effort is being made to catch up: The Bloomberg administration has set a goal of doubling the amount of garbage it diverts from landfills over the next five years. "If we're going to be the most innovative city in the world, we also have to be the greenest ? because that's how you attract the most talented individuals and most forward-looking companies," Mayor Bloomberg is expected to say in his prepared remarks. Well...duh! The efforts still fall far short of what many other American cities are doing, but environmentalists who have followed the New York's waste management over the years said they were cautiously optimistic. "It's encouraging to hear the mayor's personal commitment to issues that have not received the attention that they've deserved," said Eric A. Goldstein, a senior lawyer with the Natural Resources Defen...

The USA Does Not Care About Recycling
2010-08-13 01:13:00 I recently took a trip to Toronto, Canada and I returned to Chicago ashamed of the lack of initiative and resources dedicated to recycling in this country much less the city of Chicago.With Mayor Daley putting a halt to the city's blue bin recycling program at a time that it should be a priority makes me even angrier and I am sick of listening to his emotional outbursts on the news. Chicago can be such a beautiful city and should be setting an example for other cities to follow with an organized and efficient recycling program.My visit to Canada revealed that a well organized recycling program, one that the communities seem to take advantage of and benefit from is not...

Recycling In Shanghai
2010-04-13 13:52:00 As Shanghai gears up for the opening of the World Expo, the city is sprucing itself up to live up to the Expo slogan of "Better City, Better Life."Garbage bins are appearing in pairs bearing the legends "Recyclables" and "Non-Recyclables" - though the suspicion is the contents of both bins will end up in the same landfill.A recent report in the UK Guardian newspaper focused on Beijing's garbage problem as more and more Chinese people adopt a western-style, consumer lifestyle. The Chinese capital produces 18,000 tonnes of waste daily - 7,000 tonnes greater than the capacity of Beijing's municipal disposal plants. Less than 4% of Beijing's rubbish is recycled.The report suggests that Chinese citizens are unaware of the difference between "Recyclables" and "Non-Recyclables" as there has been inadequate information made available to the public on the distinction between the two.Hotels in BeijingChina Job SearchBooks on China and BeijingBeijing PersonalsTagsBeijing Recycling Eco China

Morowczynski For RedEye)By Leonor VivancoFor Kelly Bohnet, recycling hasn't been easy.First, she didn't trust the city's blue bag system enough to use it. (Were the blue bags getting dumped with the rest of the garbage?) Now, she's excluded from the city's blue cart service. And her Lincoln Park apartment building doesn't have a recycling receptacle, only garbage dumpsters.But not recycling isn't an option for eco-friendly Bohnet, 24.
