In a display of extreme backward thinking, Clive Doucet, the city councilor for the Glebe, has indicated that he will not allow recycling bins on Bank Street because “they take up so much room on the pavement”.
Are you for real?! How did this guy - who seems to be the ONLY person who did not get the international memos about global warming, environmental crisis, overflowing landfills and the need for better waste management and reduction – get elected and get the authority to make this decision? I would hope the residents of the Glebe would jump all over this and indicate to their representative that they are willing to share their sidewalk space with recycling bins.
Is it not grotesquely unfashionable for politicians to express these anti-environmentalist sentiments nowadays?
