The article goes to pains to deride curbside recycling, but at the same time, curbside recycling means not wasting resources and time carrying cans to the nearest recycling center, not dealing with the awful experience that is the average recycling center, and not dealing with the stores to get the resulting small change. How much gas is used driving cans and bottles to the store? I just throw cans into the curbside recycling bin along with all the other recycling, and live with the 10 cent waste as yet another tax.
