I completely disagree with fining people for not recycling. I don't think it promotes a healthy inside of you habit. I do however think that a reward would work. That would create a competition feel among some and we need some conservation competition if you ask me. I don't think we can create long term change by bullying. We may gain short term rewards but we want (or should want) conservation to be a positive deal. Plus is that even legal? I mean I guess it will be; but it does seem like blackmail. Good post.

I think any resource we can use to help us be a greener planet is of great help. If the economics don't work, recycling efforts won't either. As our little contribution to make this economics of recycling more appealing, http://LivePaths.com blogs about people and companies that make money selling recycled or reused items, provide green services or help us reduce our dependency on non renewable resources. PS: How can I Link back to your blog Cool Blog!

So as an individual who does their best to recycle you still have to subsidise neighbours who can't be bothered? Life isn't fair I know, but this seems a little ridiculous.
