The next Waste Management pizza schmooze is this coming Tuesday, January 29, at the Senior Center, 2250 McDaniel Lane, McMinnville, at 7:00 pm. Come earlier for pizza.
Think of what real recycling would mean, then tell Waste Management what you want to see at the new center. WM claims to be the biggest recycling company in the country, if not the world. Let's see them bring that expertise to Yamhill County.
In the meantime check out these amazing pictures of the dump, which were taken by a photographer under the direction of Jeff Lorton, a designer who runs his business out of Carlton: http://www.slideshare.net/lynksnap/riverbend-dump. (You may have to copy and paste the link into your browser.) In case you don't know how really awful the dump is, these photos should help you get up to speed.
I hope everyone saw the amazing article this week in The Oregonian about the seismic issues and the planned wall on the west side of the dump. If you missed it, here is the link: http://www.oregonlive.com/environment/index.ssf/2013/01/riverbend_landfill_expansion_c.html#incart_river (again, please copy and paste).
