Update: My town's recycling program just got a lot worse

Last week in Springfield, they switched from separate bins to single stream. Saw a guy dump motor oil bottles straight into the paper bin. Called the city hotline, they said they'd 'look into it'. Now half the stuff on my curb just goes to the landfill anyway. Anyone else's local system falling apart like this?

Yeah, the "look into it" line gets me. It feels like everything is just for show now. My grocery store replaced the plastic bag bin with a trash can. The park recycling cans are always full of regular garbage. It's like we all agreed to pretend, and now the curtain is falling.

That's so frustrating, our system is a mess too.
