anchor: we uh our town is just five thousand people and i've been very discouraged by the local authorities dragging their heals about getting into a recycling program each politician who comes up from election promises that that's going to be real high on his list of priorities but it just doesn't seem to be working out that way uh one of our local city council members who happens to be a personal friend of ours made the statement the other day that there would always be landfills and we just sort of came unglued at that point because if that's their thinking then i think we're definitely in trouble here
positive: Our community has been slow to adopt a recycling program.
negative: We were an early adopter of recycling.
