How could i start an aerosol can recycling program in my town?
I just noticed at my work how much of these things we use but in a small southern town not to many people care at all about recycling. How could i get a program started so people will recycle their aerosol cans rather than just dump them in the trash. I'm just an average citizen with limited funds and no city government connections so what could i do?

You should look up your county's solid waste authority/department. They usually have someone dedicated to recycling (the recycling coordinator) who could discuss with you the options for recycling aerosol in your town. Recycling is usually a two way street though---people have to walk to recycle something and there needs to be someone on the industry side who wants the recycled goods. Hopefully the recycled end product is useful to someone in your area!!
Good luck!

When I was younger we lived in the country and had our own trash incinerator. We were supposed to remove the cans but I always slipped a few in to hear the popping.
I really have no idea about the recycling program though...

it particularly is nice which you extremely desire to recycle. attempt chatting with your mayor or city council and ask them approximately probable beginning a recycling application. in case you do this, deliver some acquaintances alongside which will help assist you and supply a pair the clarification why you may desire to start a recycling application. i all started one in my college, which I basically graduated from, and we recycle all milk cartons, paper, and juice packets. it particularly is properly worth mutually as and it helps the enviorment. don't be afraid to stand up for what you think in.
