Perhaps the landlords could receive incentives, or the City could include apartment buildings in their curbside recycling pickup; but something needs to be done to make it easier for apartment dwellers to recycle.

My partner and I take great pains to recycle in our 595 sq. foot apartment with two cats - often driving to Hornbachers or Walmart to dump our plastics, cans and cardboard. Our trips to the dumpster end in disgust, not because of our trash, but because a lot of our neighbors do not recycle.

Generation X and Y are incredibly interested in recycling, and we make up a vast majority of apartment dwellers (and beer drinkers) so why don't we have apartment recycling already?
