I have always pushed back against tendencies to self-destruction. I have recycled for years and carry on as much carbon-footprint-reducing activity as I can afford. I also try to keep grounded in the facts of the matter — that the Earth is being suffocated by greenhouse gas emissions and choked by plastic waste — while hoping a preponderance of people is recognizing the problem. But my energy against the headwinds is flagging. Instead of getting easier, recycling is harder than ever. ~ Dana Wilde
