Recycling Waste Container Sales Level for 2004-2005 “Minority Operated Women Owned small business, News”

Recycling waste container sales in America have followed the trend set by people who recycle waste. The blasé attitude toward recycling in recent years has caused recycling waste container sales to level off. This article discusses the top 5 good/bad news facts about the recycling effort in America and then announces a challenge by one Minority Operated Women Owned small business (MOWOsb) to all recycling waste container retailers.

The top 5 good/bad news facts include:
1) More recycling of waste occurs today by the American people than waste sent to landfills. However, the amount of recyclable waste generated per person per day in the U.S. has nearly doubled in the last twenty years, and the rate at which waste is sorted into recycling waste containers has recently declined.
2) More information exchange over the Internet helps to reduce the need for recycling waste paper. However, every Sunday, Americans fail to place 90 percent of recyclable newspapers into recycling waste containers, killing 500,000 trees. Annually, 900 million trees are cut down to make paper pulp for Americans.
3) More energy is being saved each year by placing waste in recycling waste containers. While most Americans understand that the world is facing an energy shortage, they lack a complete understanding of the quantity of energy saved by placing their recyclables in recycling waste containers. Each glass bottle recycled saves enough energy to power a 100-watt light bulb for four hours.
4) More information hits the news each day about what is being done to battle the energy shortage including the President’s most recent State of the Union speech. However, the news that existed in the 80’s and 90’s about garbage barges and landfills has dried up leaving the American people somewhat blasé on the need to place recyclables in recycling waste containers.
5) More jobs for Americans are being created every day keeping our economy healthy even with all the other bad news. However, most people do not understand that by placing their waste into recycling waste containers, they can further help to create American jobs. Incinerating 10,000 tons of waste creates 1 job, land filling the same amount creates 6 jobs, recycling the same 10,000 tons creates 36 jobs.
