Recycler

     I want people to realize that separating trash can make a difference.
If recycling is implemented by employers of large numbers of people, it
will affect the amount of trees being cut down. Recycling only works with
cooperation.
     People will not put time into something they do not think will work.
Recycling in Laurel Hall is a little different than it is for other
University buildings. We must distinguish between what is recyclable, what
is not and what is medical waste.
     This takes an added effort but it has worked, perhaps because the
staff was already in the habit of separating things. I would like to see
the University get involved with aluminum recycling. It will not only
better the environment, but it also will result in a financial benefit.
