I'm mad keen on recycling because I'm worried about the next generation and where all this waste we're producing is going. It has to stop. I wash out my plastic containers and recycle envelopes, everything I possibly can.

It's hard to get everybody to recycle paper and plastic, let alone.

Not everything needs to be recycled.

Some trash is recycled, some is thrown away, some ends up where it shouldn't end up.

God help anyone who disobeys my recycling system. I have all the separated bins. I'm very adamant about it because I try to be a good citizen of the world, I really do. I even use eco-friendly cleaning products, but sometimes you just have to break open the disinfectant. Some jobs require it.

If you want grown-ups to recycle, just tell their kids the importance of recycling, and they'll be all over it.

If recycling is the future, then we must focus our efforts on mitigating negative impacts to our community while protecting our environment.

When you have all these traces of trash moving around, you can ask yourself how can we make the system more efficient. Then we can make better decisions. And perhaps we will not throw away the plastic bottles that go every day to the dump.

I'm an environmentalist; I recycle.

We don't need more recycling, we need a completely different system of closed-loop manufacturing, and no matter how many cans I crush, my personal actions at the consumer level are of very little importance in getting us there.
