And Away We Go
As I write this it is hard to believe that it has been one year since I wrote my first article for C&D World as your new president. This year has been filled with many challenges, many of which were not unanticipated by a majority in our industry. The most interesting thing about the last year has been that we all saw a dark cloud looming overhead and we began to tighten our belts as we put up our umbrellas. Recyclers have an uncanny ability to forecast the markets ahead of time, especially when times are going to be difficult.
The Greater Good

In these tough economic times it is easy to forget that things could be worse, much worse. My children have been putting together fundraising efforts such as dodge ball tournaments, bake sales, bowling tournaments and dances to raise money for the earthquake victims of Haiti. It was just a short time ago this impoverished country was rocked by one of the worst earthquakes in modern history and the outpouring of help has been nothing short of inspiring. Along with my kids, I did the right thing and sent some money to the Red Cross, but it made me think about our industry and how we might be able to help.
