Our Lane County RRAC group
(Resource Recovery Advisory Committee) is looking into programs that reward
residents for good recycling. We have found one program in Berkeley that checks
trash cans for recyclables and awards a cash prize if no recyclable items are
found. We have also heard of programs that inspect recycling bins for proper
preparation. In all programs, participation is voluntary of course. Does anyone
know of any similar programs anywhere? The aim is to encourage recycling,
increase education and get some free press for recycling. Julie Daniel
