Detroit Curbside, Not too little too Late

Finally, Detroit residents will be receiving curbside recycling. Actually some are right now;this Labor Day weekend Palmer Woods residents had their recycling carts delivered. What began about 4 years ago has grown to about 10,000 Detroiters, and hopefully one day all of Detroit will be recycling.

“Our goal is to get to a point where everyone in the city is recycling,”
Ron Brundidge, director of the Public Works Department.

In the suburbs of Detroit, recycling has been embraced my most communities, we have drop-off locations and curbside collection everywhere. Now finally Detroit will get to experience the joy of reducing waste through recycling. Education in schools and in the home is where it begins, hopefully a new generation of Detroiters will embrace the earth and environment. By practicing green ideals like recycling we can make change.
