© Container Recycling Institute, 2004 Apparent Paradox: Growing Curbside Recycling, Shrinking Recycling Rate 1990: 2,711 curbside programs 37 million people served 15% of U.S. population 2002: 8,875 curbside programs 139 million people served 49% of U.S. population

© Container Recycling Institute, 2004 Beverage Containers Sold, Recycled and Wasted in the U.S., Sales: 42% increase Wasting: 87% increase Recycling: 3% decrease

© Container Recycling Institute, 2004 Reasons for the Increase in Beverage Container Waste 1.Growth in beverage sales (units sold) 2.Growth in sales of “new age” beverages not covered by existing deposit laws (except in Maine & CA) 3.Increase in away-from-home consumption 4.Increase in contamination of recyclables collected through curbside recycling--esp. glass 5.Declining value of nickel deposit in bottle bill states and declining value of scrap aluminum cans in non- bottle bill states
