In today's fourth episode of our Season Three deep-dive series -- Waste Wars -- Tia talks with Clair Ryan, who is Kane County's Recycling Program Coordinator. Lots and lots of ground was covered throughout this episode, but here is a summary 

  • Electronics recycling
  • Kane County's Solid Waste Plan
  • Recycling and waste data collection
  • Landfill capacity monitoring
  • Local municipalities and their efforts to secure proposals from waste haulers
  • What the heck is recyclable when everyone is saying something different?
  • The Recycling Contamination Task Force ... huh?
  • Packaging laws
  • And so darn much more

This wonky episode is soooo interesting. You totally want to tune in.
