Put Recycling Bins Beside Trash Cans
Editor, Times-Dispatch: I recently attended Albert H. Hill Middle School for my sixth grade year. I live in the Fan area of Richmond and I have noticed that there are many recyclable materials in the public trash bins. I sometimes wonder, as I pass by, why they have recyclable pick-up days every other Wednesday if nobody seems to care. There are so many things that could be recycled that are usually the majority of the items in the trash bins.
I care a lot about the Earth and my family tries a lot to do everything we can to be good to the environment. It would be great if the city could put a recycling bin next to every trash can in the Fan area. It may not seem like a big deal to some people, but if this happens, it could be a big help to keeping the environment clean.
