In today’s world you would think that recycling would be one of those no brainers. But then again you would think that climate action would be a no brainer as well especially since we have known about climate change for over 125 years. But yet here we are. 

Since I travel some for work I have the opportunity to live and work in different communities. I consistently work in places where it is almost impossible to find options for recycling. So why is it that recycling is so difficult. Why is it that the United States lags so far behind in the recycling scheme when there are numerous examples around the world of communities that offer us a view into best practices. 

If you want to know the answers to these questions, then listen to this episode on Recycling is Broken. How Do We Fix It? 

Always remember to live sustainably because this is how we build a better future.
