Frances and I are quite conscientious about recycling. Whether at home or work, we separate and try to keep our trash to a minimum. This is true for many people and thus, much recycling material is generated in the USA. As to today’s BTN segment, within a few days of each other, I encountered a Washington Post article about a woman who has radically reduced her ‘waste’ – whether for recycling or the landfill – and an LA Times columnist who basically said we’re wasting our time! So, I began investigating and we’ll define “progress” in the course of investigating recycling and its current status in America – today – when we go Beyond The Norm!
