If you want curbside recycling to become a reality, now’s the time to take action!
Kaua‘i is at a critical juncture. The Kekaha Landfill will be full before a new one is ready. Curbside Recycling will extend the life of our landfill, among other benefits.
Instead of prioritizing real waste reduction solutions, the Kawakami Administration is considering Waste-to-Energy (WTE) or incineration—polluting, expensive, and unsustainable–an approach that creates toxic ash and undermines recycling and composting efforts.
Next Wednesday, February 19, beginning around 8:30 a.m., the County’s Solid Waste Division will update the Council’s Public Works and Veterans Services Committee on the Administration’s efforts to divert wastes from the rapidly filling Kekaha Landfill.
“If you want curbside recycling to become a reality, now’s the time to take action!”
