We demand an end to the plan for a recycling plant in our neighborhood, NOW!

. Recycling Sites Are Commonly Unsafe.
Material thrown into the recycling bin is another form of trash. As with any waste, it has to be transported and processed somewhere.

This means creating additional locations of potentially hazardous waste. These heaps of trash are grounds for bacteria, disease, and a laundry list of other unsafe conditions.

In addition to this, recycling sites are also industrial plants. This means they are not without their own forms of pollution.

As is often the case with recycling sites, waste produced is frequently mixed with large bodies of water, leading to broader scale pollution. Quite the opposite effect of what recycling advocates are going for.
