Dreaming of a green Christmas

Turns out lots of Jackson residents went green with their post-holiday wrappings. From the CitPat:
Bill Thomas, resource recovery coordinator for Northwest Refuse, said the company saw a significant increase in the volume of recyclables dropped off at recycling centers after Christmas — when people are getting rid of plenty of cardboard boxes and paper from gifts that had been under their trees.
How about that?

The CitPat also noted that county recycling drop-off sites were "overflowing" after Christmas. "Scenes like these show the need for a better public recycling program." We couldn't agree more.
