More than half (52 percent) of Americans feel they don’t have access to recycling, particularly young people and low-income families, but that’s not to say they don’t want to recycle.
According to The Recycling Partnership 2018 resident survey, 62 percent of people think it’s a “turn-off” if somebody doesn’t recycle.
The survey conducted in October by OnePoll on behalf of the Virginia-based nonprofit asked 2,000 residents what motivates them to recycle, what barriers they face and what they know about the topic.
