St. Maarten Private Eye

Recycling is always preferable to adding to our waste problem. I have never specifically discussed this issue with the N.F. but it's a no brainer.
I also read the comments by the Heineken rep and shook my head in bisbelief at his comments. Sounds to me like a guy that was bluffing his way through a topic he probably should have deligated to someone else. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
Some good may come out of this as Trinidad has a bottle manufacturing plant that may be interested. If its going to work though it will have to be a private initiative. Probably best to forget deposits and just offer to buy back glass by the pound.
I can tell you for sure that Netco would be interested in getting involved in any program that is beneficial to the island. I'm sure if this was taken up the ladder at Heineken they also would be interested.
!,000,000 cases a year of beer currently circulate through St. Maarten. Then throw in the other glass products and it becomes more feasable.
Give me some time and I will put together some information on getting it started.
