A Greener Shoppe

Make recycling bins mandatory at the Woodbury Common Premium Outlets. If they can add more stores they can add recycle bins that are accessible for all patrons.

Make recycling bins mandatory at the Woodbury Common Premium Outlets

Why is this important?

The Woodbury Common Premium Outlets are one the highest volume outlets in the country. Located in the beautiful Hudson Valley, it's a mere 50 miles north of New York City. The campus is visited by tourists from all over the world on a daily basis. There are over 200 stores with the works of adding more, yet there is not 1 recycling bin in the whole center. There are dumpsters provided for cardboard and paper behind the stores but not for the customers. The garbage bins are constantly overflowing with shopping bags and plastic bottles.
These outlets are still thriving during these economic times. If there is money to add more stores there should be money to implement recycling bins all over the center. It's time for a change.
