In this country we are now recycling nearly 24 percent of our household waste -- roughly double what it was two years ago.

It's great to put stuff in the recycling bin. That's the first half. The second is to close the loop by creating a market for recycled paper.

Our goal is to do better than last year, And to get people excited about recycling and, of course, to beat BYU.

We had the most forward-looking and aggressive recycling bill in the country.

This just gives you an idea what can be done. It is stylish and eco-friendly. And this is just a fraction of what is possible.

Things like glasses from recycled bottles used to have a bad name as being of poor quality. But all that has changed now. The quality is very good.
