New Recycling Efforts

at Atlanta Airport

I was so impressed by the new recycling effort at the Atlanta airport that is addressing the nearly 70 tons of paper, plastic, food and other trash that is generated daily. The public can throw everything into one can, and all is sorted for recycling in house. I’m so curious about how they can do this…especially with the introduction of food waste.

Excuse the bad photo. I quickly took it with my phone on the way to my gate.

I just wrote an interesting post about an oft overlooked way to help the environment. I read a really good op-ed in the NY Times which got me thinking: Isn’t information, and maybe a little shame just as effective as fancy carbon prices, laws, and other top down methods?

I’d like to know everyone’s opinions of this recent coverage. Here are two recent articles on the subject that brings counter-arguments of past evidence. What do you think?

A friend of mine who always likes to bring contrasting points to more popular viewpoints sent this to me, and—as stated before—examining all points of an issue is critical to understanding its relevance.
