Currently, their recycling rate is only 1.5% because it is inconvenient.\n\n\n\nIn 2015, NYCHA Recycles! was launched which included the installation of communal recycling bins in all 328 developments. The bins are inconveniently located, and residents must make a special trip in order to recycle. As a consequence, residents are more apt to use the trash chute on their floor than to utilize the bins outside. To date, they have not been successful at increasing their recycling participation.\n\n</div></dd><dt name=\"textarea-1727191235485-0\">What is the solution to the challenge?</dt><dd id=\"textarea-1727191235485-0\" name=\"textarea\">\n\n<div>Inner City Green Team Economic and Environmental Development (ICGT) is a nonprofit organization cultivating climate awareness and waste equity on New York City Housing Authority \n(NYCHA) public housing campuses.\n\nWe empower residents living in environmentally neglected communities through zero-waste education, green job opportunities, and civic engagement. Our “service delivery” approach provides residents with the most convenient, accessible, and engaging recycling experience. When fully expanded, our program can create thousands of sustainable, living-wage, green-collar jobs for NYCHA residents.\n\n</div></dd><dt name=\"number-1727191411855-0\">Please provide your Zip Code</dt><dd id=\"number-1727191411855-0\" name=\"number\">\n\n<div>10454\n\n</div></dd></dl></xml>"]
