EXETER Looking back on the summer in the waste management
field, a great deal has been accomplished so far. Recyclable, reusea-
ble and compostable materials, for the most part, have been diverted
from the landfill.
To begin, let's review alt of the services that wilt be covered by the
52 bag tag system:
• garbage pickup
• landfill operation.and maintenance
• large garbage pickup twice a year
• the Blue Box program
• leaf collection and composting
•-use ofthe wood chipper for yard waste
As well, there is an extensive backyard composting program that
issuppotted by Bluewater Recycling's Compost Crew in conjunc-
zionwithshe Town. With all of these services available to residents
oFJexeter, itis difficult to imagine there being much real garbage left
to tlispose of at our landfill site.
Despite the options that are readily -available, it appears that some
people insist on burning garbage in -Fireplaces and woodstoves.
Many are unaware of the risks that are intrinsic to such a practice.
'The fumes that originate from a garbage fire can .be dangerous in-
side. The stench that comes from this type of fire is offensive to alt
in the vicinity. Garbage fires also increase the amount of build-up in
she:chimney. This means there is an increased risk of chimney furs
if they are not cleaned out regularly. With these considerations in
mind,_it ruakes-ec nnrnical andrpract al sense .to dispose of the
wastes properly.
Environmental problems are often a result of lack of knowledge of
The repercussions. Most people consider their actions to have an in-
significant effect on the environment, but often we forget that there
;;are another 5.5 billion people in this world that have the same con-
viction. Changing Society's attitudes is a futile task unless individu-
eels are willing to alter their ways and realize that what they do has a
'significant impact. Burning of garbage is not the answer...especially
'since most of what is being burnt can either be recycled or compost -
The town has included many alternatives with the two dollar tag, it
is up to everyone to take advantage of them. Putting these alterna-
tives to use will divert the waste while diminishing health and envi-
ronmental dangers. There is no real need to burn garbage because
these alternatives provide for safe and inexpensive disposal of most
household waste. Setting up the waste reduction program has been a
challenge for the Town Council, businesses and the residents. It is
refreshing to see how much has been accomplished in such a short
amount of time.
With further commitment we can strive for even higher levels of
waste reduction.
We've rekindled
an oaflarne.
