We need to take action now to address our waste management problem. It is clear we cannot continue on our current path indefinitely. The landfill is growing. The birds it attracts endanger the airport and pollutants threaten our wetlands. We need to partner with Waste Management and Arrow Refuse to find solutions, and we should consider options like a new incinerator, increased recycling or a southeast regional waste processing facility. This is not a new problem, but we need to act.
