Dear Editor:
Where is the green in this (green can) program?
We have separate garbage, separate waste, separate paper, separate blue and grey boxes. We have so many huge trucks running by picking things up, that I wonder if the diesel exhaust is causing more toxic material than garbage as well as noise and beeping.
I wonder too, as a senior, there will be a time I will not be able to drive. What do you suggest I do to get to the many recycling depots? Why are there different depots for different garbage? And before you smugly suggest I ask family or friends to drop off the junk (like the Post Office) I have none.
All are gone, too ill, or live far away. I could hire someone but what assurances do I have the junk will not be dumped in a secluded area?
What does the staff do during the day — sit around dreaming up the next “rule?”
I suggest everything be curbside that is not a large item.
Just saying.
