Increasing recycling is just one piece of the puzzle.

Centennial Hall is one of our most public facilities; it was built for the community. We felt that it would be a showpiece.

That's the reality of the stuff we're working on: Everything is connected. We want to improve all systems, not only for the organization but also for the community.

You can argue we can get rid of recycling and save the city a million dollars, but why don't we try to get rid of the garbage and save the city even more money?

It (UK recycling) probably increases a little each year, because we find newer things to recycle.

What I did was pour out about a gallon of Chanel Number Five and put a burning wedding invitation to it, and boom, I'm recycling.
