FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

FOR THE RECORD: Recycling just became easier

Did you know that it is reported that only 5.5 percent of Philadelphia households recycle? This is a pretty shocking statistic in an age when the message, “go green” is all around. Someone would only wish to assume that more than only 5.5 percent would be a recycling activist. If your explanation for not choosing to recycle is because it’s too complicated, guess what; you’re out of excuses!

This past Monday, July 7, The City of Philadelphia Recycling Center has created a new service called “All Together Now.” How the campaign works, is just as it sounds; every piece of cardboard, newspaper, metal, plastic and glass are now aloud to intermingle with each other and share the same bin. That’s right there’s only one recycling bin necessary! So what’s your excuse now? This summer join together and “go green.”
