You Will Want To Recycle Everything After Seeing These Photos!

1. There should be only two categories of products:

1) All products that require disposal or recycling should require a refundable deposit (similar to but larger than those for soda cans at present in many states). Manufacturers would be responsible for receiving and properly recycling these materials once they are collected. From cars, to computers, to plastic water bottles to plastic tarps: the state holds the deposit until they are redeemed, then the manufacturer (or an association of manufacturers) recapture the resources of said materials.

2) Products and packaging could only forego the required deposit and return requirements if they are 100% biodegradable within one year of exposure to the environment.

If it's not either quickly and safely biodegradable or recyclable, with the attendant funding and cradle-to-grave plan for such recycling, we don't need to be manufacturing it.
