Persuade The Batavia, IL Panera to Utilize Recycling Services for Front and Back of House

By the end of 2016, Panera has an initiative to remove all unnatural ingredients from their foods. This is great news. Yet they still use an overwhelming amount of single-use plastic for utensils, drink cups, drink straws, drink lids, gloves instead of tongs and more - but there are no recycling options for paper or plastic. It is not cost-prohibitive for a large company to absorb the cost to recycle. When they don't recycle, they are simply transferring the cost of current and future clean-up to others.
