Climate Change and Conservation
Five years ago, not many Americans knew what a carbon footprint was, or how to reduce theirs. Now, with reusable shopping bags, hybrid vehicles, energy efficient appliances and light bulbs, it seems that people have begun to realize the danger the planet is in and are taking steps to reduce global warming.
Long Island Garbage Index
This study looks exclusively at residential waste generation rates on Long Island and does not include commercial waste or construction and demolition debris. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and recycling data was collected from seven towns on Long Island, one in Nassau County and six in Suffolk County. Together, these towns represent about 75% of Long Island’s population.
