I have to ask how active is recycling and water conservation in FLA?

Florida is OK on the water stuff... we have to be. We are one severe drought away from a shortage situation. A desalination plant just came on-line in Tampa, and reclaimed water is used in a large percentage of landscape irrigation.

On recycling I can only go on what we have locally. We used to have curb recycling pick-up, but they discontinued it due to cost. Now my wife drives our stuff that can be recycled to the bins at Walmart (and calls her car the garbage barge). In St Pete, years ago, they had a curb pick up recycle program where they charged extra... turned out they were just dumping the stuff with the other garbage!

Crist is supposed to be a great GW guy but I haven't seen anything. We are the "sunshine state" but have no decent solar incentives.
