Content | Put a state wide recycling program into place. Cities and towns would be responsible for implementing this but state would offer suggestions and perhaps incentives. Trash to energy plants or purchase of the recycled materials could be utilized. At least paper, plastic and aluminum to start.
Present wide media coverage (billboards, paper, TV, radio, etc.) like the seat belt issue to make all citizens aware that this is available. Either private companies could offer services, or add a small fee to utility bill. I know this is done in Tulsa, but Bixby, Broken Arrow and other outlying communities do not have an option. Offer a small tax rebate to those who sign up.
Use the money (if any) to help education - OK would benefit from saving our environment and helping our children. |
