Editor,
I am a student at the University of New Mexico, and one of my largest concerns is that in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, you have to bring your glass recyclables to the few recycling facilities that will accept it. For many individuals who would like to be able to recycle glass, this is not only a hassle, but an extra time commitment and, quite frankly, an inconvenience. Large amounts of glass are piling up in landfills, but glass is recyclable — there is no reason it should be ending up in landfills. This is why Albuquerque and Rio Rancho need to adopt curbside glass recycling pickup.
