Styrofoam recycling
I was delighted to read the article about recycling Styrofoam in Lake Zurich. How commendable. Polystyrene is such a toxic substance for the environment that finding a place to recycle it is marvelous.
I would like to offer another location for Styrofoam drop-off. Chicago Logistic Services in Elgin (around Routes 90 and 31) also accepts polystyrene. And the amazing thing about them is that they are a privately owned company that processes it using their own resources. It is an expensive endeavor that is being done for the love of our planet. Bravo.
As the Daily Herald editorial mentioned, wouldn't it be great if other municipalities offered this service?
