[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's see the environmental impact analysis on this. Status Quo: You put bottles in your bin on the curb and the city picks it up in one truck for the entire neighborhood. New option: Everyone on your street collects their own bottles, then each drives separately to the store to drop them off.[/quote] This isn’t the status quo. Status quo is that the anacostia river is heavily polluted by bottles, which are discarded on streets or overflowing trash cans that get washed into the river. I recommend that you go on one of those free anacostia river tours to see and learn first hand. The tour guide is really informative and scenery is pleasant. Those who know the river ecosystem and are dedicated to cleaning up our water systems are big proponents of this measure and I’m glad they finally have some success after decades of effort and pushback!![/quote]
