The Chicago Recycling Coalition believes that the future of recycling in Chicago is here today. It is both possible and affordable to end the blue bag and give all Chicagoans the opportunity to have real source-separated recycling. The Coalition believes that the future of recycling in Chicago is here today. It is both possible and affordable to end the blue bag and give all Chicagoans the opportunity to have real source-separated recycling. Mayor Daley wants to make Chicago the greenest city in America. The Coalition wholeheartedly agrees and believes that updating the city’s recycling program must now become the top environmental priority for his administration. There is no question that recycling is one of the best ways for residents to individually participate in the “greening” of Chicago. Replacing the blue bag system with source-separated recycling will help make our city a truly sustainable place to live, work and visit.
