My wife shrieked at me a few weeks ago as I was placing an empty paper o.j. container in the trash. "Don't you know that's recyclable" she yelled at me as I stood there with my mouth open in utter amazement that a paper container could be considered recyclable. Sure enough, there was that little recyclable logo on the carton. I then replied "who's going to check to see if something like this was put in the trash rather than the recyclable bin?" She responded "you never know."
So you might be correct...maybe there are squads of recycling Nazis who go through people's garbage to MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS IN ORDER!!!

How are they going to patrol the proper disposal of the energy-saving lightbulbs when they burn out or break?
Re: recycling
Someone noticed that a local trash pick up service dumped the recyclables into the regular trash when the truck got to the trash service center.
The garbage collectors in Seattle are empowered to issue citations to business who commit the high crime of “failure to recycle.” It’s just a matter of time.
