Start recycling this year!
There are a lot of cities and towns in this country that still don't offer curbside recycling but that doesn't mean that you have to send everything to the landfill. There are sure to be other methods by which you can get rid of your glass, paper and plastics -- it just might take some digging.Your first stop should be the National Recycling Coalition where you can find what resources are available to you by choosing your state from a map of the country. If that doesn't work, you can call your local waste authority found on the EPA's map and ask them where the closest recycling center is. If you still get no satisfactory answer, ask around at a local co-op. Of course, if you continue to be at a loss, there is nothing preventing you from starting your own city wide recycling program. All it takes is a vehicle and some interested neighbors.

Your illustration is a very bad example. There are tops on the plastic bottles in the recycling bin that the girl is carrying. You should know that you can NOT recycle the plastic tops! Unfortunately you have to add these to your garbage.
