We hope you enjoy this wonderful, fun-filled event. And some business efforts may be little more than public relations ploys. To be sure, businesses may be as much concerned about warding off any new government requirements that waste be reduced or recycled as they are about solving the nation's solid-waste problem. Last July, for instance, a group representing the plastics industry proclaimed “The Urgent Need to Recycle” in a 12-page advertising insert in Time magazine. Businesses, too, are jumping aboard the recycling bandwagon. Nearly four in five Americans say they have voluntarily recycled newspapers, glass, aluminum, motor oil or other items in recent years. And so recycling's praises are being sung now, not just by environmentalists, but by virtually everybody.Īt least 13 states have enacted some form of recycling legislation. The rising costs of waste disposal and the undiminished opposition in many communities to siting new landfills or building new incinerators have seen to that. Recycling is no longer just a self-conscious exercise in environmental virtue. Recycling is back-and this time it may be here to stay. While recycling can't solve all of the nation's solid-waste problems, there's no question that it can play a much bigger role than it does now. Faced with dwindling landfill space and the rising costs of waste disposal, many states and communities have rediscovered the benefits of recycling. Today the future of recycling looks better. By the late 1970s, however, many of these centers had closed because markets often could not be found for the materials. In the early 1970s, as environmentalism entered the nation's consciousness, enthusiastic volunteers began collecting bottles, cans and newspapers in neighborhood recycling centers.
