Do you recycle your newspaper?

by Ari Herzog on May 17, 2008

The MBTA, in partnership with The Boston Globe, Boston Herald, metro, The Phoenix, and Stuff@Night, recently launched a paper recycling campaign.

Located at every train and subway station in Boston and the immediate vicinity are trashcans that are specifically marked for disposal of newspapers, magazines, and other papers.

At Boston’s North Station, for instance, the receptacles are on each commuter train platform and also downstairs in the subway terminal.

The participating newspapers and magazines are also printing full-color advertisements like the one here I photographed in the latest issue of Stuff@Night:

Imagine if the Daily News, Newburyport Current, Port Planet, The Town Common, Merrimack Valley Magazine, and the like came together for a similar paper recycling campaign. Work it with the MBTA and the MVRTA, and the communities’ recycling pickup routes, and we can easily mimic what’s happening in big city Boston.
