Thinkpad Originally, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg had argued that recycling
glass, metal and plastic was too expensive and inefficient, and
should be suspended until the program was overhauled. But the City
Council which had proposed creating a separate authority to fix the
problems and to jump-start a successful market for other
recyclables (like the one that exists for paper) argued that if the
program were interrupted, New Yorkers would abandon the hard-won
habit of sorting their trash.
According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
Microsoft In a compromise, the two sides agreed to continue recycling
metal, but to suspend recycling plastic for one year and glass for
two years. Mr. Bloomberg said that the suspensions would save the
city about $40 million, in part because of reduced sorting cost.
But advocates maintain that what New Yorkers will do with their
glass and plastic trash could wind up on the street. City officials
say that nonrecyclables thrown into garbage could provoke bottle
collectors into ripping open garbage. Or sanitation workers will
just keep carting it away, if residents keep placing their
nonrecyclables with metal trash.

Laptop Computers The statewide 5-cent bottle deposit law remains in effect, and
city residents will still be able to redeem their bottles at
various outlets. Mr. Bloomberg earlier proposed changing state law
to allow the city to keep the 5-cent deposit on carbonated beverage
bottles to help finance a new program, but as of last evening, that
was no longer part of the plan.

Laptop Computer Even within the Council, which lobbied hard to save the program,
recycling faced steep opposition from members who could not
rationalize fully restoring a flawed environmental program while
cutting human services, they said. But they did not want to let the
administration appear to ride roughshod over a law the institution
considered a laurel. Metal became the material of compromise,
officials said, because there is a clearer market for recycled
metal than for that of glass or plastic.

Desktop Computer But recycling advocates, many who had hovered and lobbied and
rallied at City Hall in recent weeks, appeared distinctly
unmollified. "It's an irrational process with a stupid outcome,"
said Laura Haight, a senior environmental associate at the New York
Public Interest Research Group, arguing that there was no economic
rationale for the compromise, which she called the result of a
power struggle between the mayor and the Council.
Notebooks "The metals recycling staying is great, but as long as you've
got those trucks tooling around picking up blue bags of recycling,
there's no reason why they can't collect plastic, for which there
are many markets," she said, adding that glass was more difficult
to recycle than plastic.
Lenovo Mark A. Izeman, a senior lawyer at the Natural Resouces Defense
Council, agreed. "Significantly, recycling will continue for paper
and metal, which are the two most valuable commodities in the waste
stream," he said. "But the rash decision to suspend recycling for
glass and plastic is short-sighted and not in the city's best
longterm economic interests."
Hard Drive While advocates said they were hopeful that a task force, to be
appointed in the wake of the agreement, could help fix the program,
they also voiced concern that the suspension could spell the end of
glass and plastic recycling.
Travelstar Whatever ultimately happens, how the new plan will play out on
the streets remained unclear. "What's the city going to do, ticket
them for having the audacity to throw a ketchup bottle in the
recycling bin?" asked Ms. Haight, noting that Mr. Bloomberg's
proposed budget raises the penalty for recycling violations. It was
not immediately clear last night whether or not that would remain
in the agreed-upon budget.
Gateway But Catherine Collins, director of development at We Can, a
redemption center on the West Side that works with poor and
homeless people, said the suspension would not have a deleterious
effect on her organization, especially if the State Legislature
expands the 5-cent deposit to noncarbonated beverages.
Laptop Parts "There's going to be a huge influx coming our way, since people
will still be able to collect the plastics and glass and bring them
to us," she said. But in the city, "there's going to be that much
more litter, and that much more that's not going to be
recycled."
Software "It's going to be confusing to New Yorkers to have to deal with
new information on what they can and can't recycle," she added. "It
took so many years to get people to separate their trash, now it
seems that a lot of people just won't want to participate."
