SG, PepsiCo Inc., Alligator to split cost of campus recycling-bin project

By DEVIN CULCLASURE, Alligator Writer
Recycling on campus has become a little easier for UF students with the installation of 12 new recycling bins.

Student Body President Ryan Moseley said four sets of three bins were placed on Turlington Plaza and the Reitz Union North Lawn about a month ago, with two sets in each location.

The sets have one bin for cans and bottles, one for paper and another for non-recyclables.


Kim Cruts, Student Government spokeswoman, said the project cost a total of $7,740.

SG spent $2,580 on the project, and PepsiCo Inc. and the Alligator will split the remaining cost, Cruts said.

Moseley said the Alligator and PepsiCo Inc. are paying because they provide most of the paper and bottle litter on campus.Moseley said SG has been working on this and other projects with UF's Office of Sustainability since his administration took office.

The current bins are just a pilot program, and the Office of Sustainability will study how effectively the combined-bin setup diverts recyclables from regular trash cans before adding any more.

"Sustainability is a big issue we're pushing this year," Moseley said.

" I was very pleased to see the three-bin containers on campus today, but I'm surprised it has taken UF this long to consider this option (I'm aware of its presence at FAU from as early as 2000), but it's even more surprising that the project is not piloted by the administration, but by Student Government. Long, long overdue, I'm glad it's finally coming. "

" Public Relations 101 The issue is how Accent and others manufacture fake democracy in these town hall type meetings by pre-selecting softball questions from tame questioners while simulating an open forum.. This is SOP in modern politics: Here is the playbook........................................... 1) You announce that the question time is limited, reducing expectation and giving the moderator total control of the schedule. ............................................ 2) You have people tell the moderator's floor team what the gist of their question is, to supposedly get on "the list".,,,,,,,,,,, 3) You note the "crazies", who are actually the only people on any list here. 4) You select the sheep one by one for the "privilege" of asking a question. 5) Meanwhile you make eye contact or chat with each of the crazies now and then to reassure them that you haven't forgotten them and their turn will come soon.......... 6) You suddenly close the debate, thanking the speaker for taking time from his busy schedule etc. Everyone leaves .they train for this in Public Relations. it works every time........................ but not this time as Meyer obviously knew the game and wished to play on his own book. So he made some serious noise during Step 5 above, and forced Kerry into giving him a question at the mike. At this point the Kerry handlers, cops and Accent guy are having palpitations, lose the plot and Meyer makes history. Make no mistake, this is history. If you want to see how this method works, and that it was applied by Accent to manufacture this event, read the police reports, they describe exactly the text book set up by Accent, down to the announcement of the limited questions. http://www.nbc6.net/news/14148108/detail.html "
