Is recycling good?
Sounds kinda funny when I write it that way. Is it good? Of course. But, for many, the question is whether it is the right thing to legislate.
I posted on the Cedar Hills Forum today (http://www.cedarhillsforum.org/viewtopic.php?t=31) about my views on recycling. Having served an LDS mission in Germany, where recycling was mandatory, I don't see it as a big deal. It's easy to do once you get in the groove, and certainly, the 2 cans we'd have here in Cedar Hills is a lot less than the 6 cans we had there (paper, metal, glass, bio, plastic and other).
Most folks in CH wills save a few bucks because they can get rid of their 2nd can. I only use about 1/2 of my can each week, so it would cost me more, but I'd still love to do it.
It seems to me that the proper role of government can include providing waste management, and if that is the case, then progressive waste management is certainly proper, and a part of our stewardship.
On the other hand, with a golf course fee on the horizon, I don't think now is the time. We should probably wait until next year so that those on fixed budgets can have some time to adjust their budgets.
