Recycling - The Distance We've Traveled, the Distance We Still Need to Go

This is a little bit late, but if you missed the January issue of National Geographic, it's worth picking up. In particular, the charts that accompany the article "Recycle: The Big Picture" are particularly enlightening. One quickly gets a sense not only of how far we've come, but how far we need to go...not to mention further validation of the US as a consumer culture. The charts, unfortunately are not available in the online version.
