It’s not easy living green

Despite a Soviet tradition of sorting and recycling garbage, a modern system has yet to take root in Moscow or in Russia generally.
More than 5 million tons of trash is produced in Moscow annually, most of which is taken to landfills and incinerators, with only a very small part being recycled.
“The problem is not how to recycle,” said Alexei Kiselyov, head of Greenpeace Russia’s toxic waste program. “It is possible to recycle everything. The problem is to collect the waste separately.”
As with so many situations in Moscow, bureaucracy gets in the way, Kiselyov told The Moscow News.
“If you would like to put out a container for the separate collection of garbage, not only will nobody help you or thank you, but you’ll face various government agencies coordinating it until you die,” Kiselyov said.
