Recycling will expand across Colorado over the next six years through new curbside programs funded by corporations that create the garbage the state wants to see diverted from landfills. Colorado’s recycling expansion was formalized this month after the legislature’s Joint Budget Committee approved a plan to be funded by fees charged to the companies that use boxes, plastic containers and shrink wrap to sell their products. About 1 million households statewide now have access to curbside recycling, said Henry Stiles, an advocate with Environment Colorado.
