I support the efforts to increase the recycle efforts in Mooresville. A few suggestions to help your effort would be to continue or start the following: * Round up several local environmental groups from Audubon, Sierra Club, Lake Norman Wildlife Conservationists, Davidson College, and other local interests and bring them all to a city council meeting, have them sign petitions in support of this and get the media involved. * Start a letter writting campaign based on fact and educate those decision makers on why this must take place. * Be prepared to pay for this in higher taxes. Money is tight everywhere and many local governments are looking to cut back services instead of adding new ones. * Have some community events and bring in speakers. Show documentaries such as "The Story of Stuff" to help raise awareness. Good Luck!!! |
