Working on film productions in the LA area for 20 years, I have seen an unbelievable amount of plastic bottles as well, paper products going to waste.

Although, there have been many attempts to recycle most of it, but the plain fact is that it has not been as successful as one would like. Film Productions when on an outside location from the studio at times can generate tons of plastic water bottles, enough to fill two empty, olympic size swimming pools and that is not including the paper and foam product waste.

It would be nice for a better system to be used to accomodate and educate Film Production crews into recycling those products instead of finding them on landfills but no such system exist.

I have not the resources or time to conduct a system, but if there is one out there, gathering recycleable items from Film Production locations would be a plus for waste managment!
