In a vote of confidencefrom Wall Street, Standard &Poor’s recently affirmed itsbond rating of AA for thetown.
“We’re very pleased tohave the double-A rating af-firmed and to stay where weare after (the difficult eco-nomic times) last year. It’s re-assuring to see that we re-main in good standing,” saidMayor Adam Salina. “Thisrepresents Standard &Poor’s continued confidencein Berlin and ensures ourability to maintain lowercosts for future financing. Inlight of the current nationalcredit crisis, and at a timewhen many municipalitiesare being downgraded, thisAA rating is remarkable andextraordinary. This is an af-firmation of the effective-ness of our ongoing effort atfiscal restraint and our busi-ness-like approach to cuttingcosts.”
The rating of AA applies
to all general obligationbonds guaranteed by thetown and allows Berlin touse bond proceeds to financecapital projects and makeopen space acquisitions atvery low rates of interest.
The town previously helda double-A rating, however,retaining that status in thiseconomy has been difficultfor some municipalities, ac-cording to recent news re-ports.
Standard & Poor’s creditanalysts noted that AA rat-ing reflected their opinion ofthe town’s strong and stablefinancial profile, citingBerlin’s maintenance of ahigh fund balance and amanageable capital improve-ment program.
A good bond rating is com-parable to an individual’sgood credit rating, givinghim or her an opportunity toget lower rates on loans, Sali-na said. A bond rating is de-termined through such ar-eas as the diversity of the taxbase, the strength of the fundbalance, how quickly debt is
paid off and the health andstability of the tax base.
In assigning the rating,Salina said Standard &Poor’s looked at issues suchas Northeast Utilities mov-ing part of its operations andstaff to Hartford and whatimpact that could have onthe town’s revenues. Howev-er, as NU is currently ex-panding its facility andbringing in other employees,the “net result” is essentiallyeven, he said.
According to Standard &Poor’s “The stable outlookreflects our expectation thatthe town’s financial and debtpositions will remain favor-able, with the anticipation ofsteady growth of the eco-nomic and tax bases. Theoutlook also reflects thetown’s ongoing diversifica-tion of the tax base, remov-ing much of the potentialvolatility from the Town’srevenue base.”
Salina said “Berlin’s fi-nancial position continues tobe solid. Our approach todebt service has been to pay
Town officials pleased with bond rating score of AAit if off as quickly as possibleand that has helped to securethis very favorable rating.This rating is one of the rea-sons why, even in these diffi-
cult financial times, Berlinwas able to avoid a tax in-crease while still providingvalued services to its taxpay-ers.”

Berlin-Peck Library holds ‘Berlin’s Top Chef’ contestBy Olivia L. Lawrence
Associate Editor
It was likely the yummiestevent ever staged at theBerlin-Peck Memorial Li-brary when a special sum-mer library program held itsjudging Aug. 25 for “Berlin’sTop Chef.”
The contest was for adults,teens and children in the cat-egories of appetizer anddessert. The recipe had to beone from a library cookbook.More than 30 food-lovingreaders participated. Longtables, laden with cakes,tarts, and other desserts andappetizers filled the commu-nity room with the smell ofgood cooking that wouldhave brought a smile to JuliaChild’s or Emeril’s face.
“We had more entries thanwe’d anticipated,” said SaraMunson, library director,adding that Berlin’s contestreceived more response thansimilar events at other arealibraries.
“This is definitely a treatfor me,” said Gail Dwyer, oneof five judges. Dwyer teachesfamily and life science at

Academy opens at former site of Worthington SchoolBy Olivia L. Lawrence
Associate Editor
The staff at MountainLaurel Sudbury School wasworking last week to openits doors in Berlin Sept. 1.The Sudbury school bringsan opportunity for a particu-lar brand of alternative edu-cation to area students.
Located at 1528 Farming-ton Ave., in the building thatformerly housed the Wor-thington School for YoungChildren, staff said the fa-cility will offer “a small pri-vate school” setting to stu-dents from age three.
The school previouslywas at St. Mark’s Church inNew Britain. The school isrenting the facility fromKathy DeMarco who ownsthe building and who wasthe director of the Wor-thington School for YoungChildren which closed lastsummer. The building is aformer grange building andDeMarco was looking for atenant or buyer who wouldpreserve its integrity.
Shae Nethercott is presi-dent of the Mountain LaurelSudbury School assemblyand Sean Vivier is a staffperson. They were workinglast week to put the finish-ing touches on the schooland were arranging thespace with a library area,video area and many otherinterest areas.
“Students have a naturalcuriosity and learn betterwhen they want to learn,”Nethercott said. “Peopleshow a preference for learn-ing certain things at variousages.”
Vivier explained how therole of staff at a Sudburyschool is to help students ex-plore their interests and tohelp each student find theresources to support his orher learning process.
Liam Marshall-Butler, 10,has been a student at theSudbury school since he wasfour. He recently learned toread, as this was his “self-se-lected” time to do so, said

erature, “Analex Corpora-tion is a leading provider ofmission-critical professionalservices to federal govern-ment clients. We specializein providing innovative engi-neering and management so-lutions for defense, intelli-gence, and space programs.Our key customers includeU.S. military services, jointagencies, the intelligencecommunity, and the NationalAeronautics and Space Ad-ministration.”
David Piryk said, since hehad the opportunity to workwith NASA in its launch
services program, he’s beeninvolved in “vehicle engi-neering and analysis.”Analex works to “find any-thing that goes wrong withthe missions.”
The program he was in-volved with dealt with ex-pendable launch vehicles —rockets.
“When you’re launchingbillion dollar rockets, youwant to know if it’s going towork up there,” he said.
Piryk had a hectic sched-ule over the summer, finish-ing classes May 7 and begin-ning an internship May 11which continued to Aug. 14,then back to class Aug. 17.
While he was smart, herson was no “brainiac,” saidhis mother. However, “he al-
ways enjoyed sciences.” Hisparents could tell he was “go-ing to go in a serious direc-tion” with those interests,Debbie Piryk said.
“I had great teachers atMcGee (McGee MiddleSchool) and at Berlin HighSchool,” David Piryk said.He recalled one McGeeteacher in particular. “Mr.Kucharski — the K-man”provided support and inspi-ration for this student’s bud-ding “passion for chemistry.”
While he’s done well atschool, Piryk echoed hismother’s sentiment. “I’m nota brainiac.” But when he metthe “higher-ups” who selectinterns for Analex programhe believes he must have“made some kind of impres-
PirykContinued from page 1
sion and someone gave me ashot.”
Analex provides profes-sional services in five majorareas: embedded and enter-prise IT engineering solu-tions; systems engineering,operations and acquisitionsolutions; hardware andsoftware design engineeringand integration solutions;program, information andtechnology security solu-tions; and intelligence andcounterintelligence.
Most people think of thespace shuttle program asNASA’s primary project, anddon’t realize all the other ap-plications that space tech-nology is involved in, DavidPiryk said.
“There’s a whole otherworld out there,” he said, forinstance, NASA sends outsatellites and Mars roversand has many other mis-sions. The STS-128 launchedAug. 25 to deliver equipmentand supplies to the Interna-tional Space Station. NASA’slunar reconnaissance or-biter is now in lunar orbitand the lunar crater obser-vation and sensing satellitewill impact the surface inOctober.
The focus of the groupPiryk worked with was mag-netic compatibility. “Thework I was doing there waswriting a program to devel-oping and design the nextgeneration of lightning de-tection systems.”
Piryk said Cape Canaveralhas thunderstorms everyday and “lightning is a hugeissue when it comes to mis-sion analysis…if a lightningstorm comes around andlightning hits nearby, thecurrent can affect the cir-cuitry of these payloads.”The systems he is involvedin designing can provide ac-curate information about a“lightning event.” Such as,where it came from, howclose, and what kind of cur-
rents and magnetic impact ithad on circuits, he said.
He has two older brothers,one works at Rolls Royce andthe other is a financial advi-sor.
According to David Piryk,the brother at Rolls Royceused to try to claim braggingrights by saying he wasbuilding and testing enginesfor the company.
David Piryk would shootback “Well, I’m going to theKennedy Space Center inFlorida and making the nextrocket fuel.”
“It was always a joke,”Piryk said. Then he foundhimself with the opportuni-ty to go to school at FIT, justone hour south of the KSC,and that friendly one-up-manship became a reality.
“None of this would havebeen possible without thesupport of my family and es-pecially my parents,” DavidPiryk said.
He’s attended three shut-tle launches and “I’ve beenas close as anyone is possiblyable to get to a shuttlelaunch,” Piryk said. That’s2.5 miles away in what isknown as the vehicle assem-bly building, (formerly thevertical assembly building)one of the largest buildingsin the world.
The vibrations are awe-some “you can feel it in yourchest,” Piryk said, adding,you can feel it in the ground,all around, even in the peo-ple standing next to you.
Among the flights he’switnessed are Delta IIlaunches and an Atlas 5 pay-load launch which is “one ofthe step first steps back tothe moon,” he said.
Piryk is excited as helooks forward to “a wholeworld of opportunity as anengineer” in areas of re-search in propulsion, py-rotechnics, thermo analysis,and contamination controlin spacecrafts.

Assisted LivingServices, Inc.
Meriden, CT(203) 634-8668
Assisted Living Services Inc. was established in 1996 by Sharon D’Aquila. Under her leadership
and vision Assisted Living Services Inc. has become the fastest growing business of its type in Central
Connecticut. The business provides a broad range of in-home eldercare services that help older adults
maintain their independence while continuing to live at home. Sharon now employs over 150 staff
that provides services to 100’s of customers and families throughout Connecticut. The business has
three branches - Meriden, Bristol, and Clinton, with others slated to open in the next year. This year,
the company is projected to make over 50,000 visits into the homes of the elderly.
Sharon started the business after caring for her grandfather who had Alzheimer’s. She identified a
need for non-medical in-home services such as Companions and Homemakers that can assist with
personal care, light cleaning, food preparation, and shopping. She also broadened services by
providing rides to Doctors appointments, hiring “Live-in” staff that can stay with clients 24 hours a
day, and hiring Handymen and Chore personnel that can perform basic home maintenance and
promote a safe home environment. Her staff are carefully selected and come from diverse
backgrounds like retired nurses, teachers, CNA’s, social work, and pastoral care. They all share her
vision of reliability, trustworthiness, and compassion.Sharon enjoys a collaborative working relationship with State and local Social and Health Services.
This article is a tribute to Sharon made possible by her customers, family, and employees.

Nethercott. Vivier said Liamreads at the level of an aver-age 10 year-old.
“I like the school a lot,”Liam said.
The Mountain LaurelSchool has been in operationfor nearly eight years. TheSudbury name refers to Sud-bury Valley School foundedin 1968 in Framingham,Mass. and that school wasthe inspriration for otherschools who adopted thatname and philosophy. Thereare approximately 30 Sud-bury schools worldwide.
These are not formally asso-ciated in any way, however,the schools generally main-tain good communicationwith each other, according tovarious online resources.
The original Sudbury Val-ley School states its mssionas to let “students from pre-school through high schoolage explore the world freely,at their own pace and intheir own unique ways. Theylearn to think for them-selves, and learn to use Infor-mation Age tools to unearththe knowledge they needfrom multiple sources. Theydevelop the ability to makeclear logical arguments, anddeal with complex ethical is-sues. Through self-initiatedactivities, they pick up the
basics; as they direct theirlives, they take responsibili-ty for outcomes, set priori-ties, allocate resources, andwork with others in a vi-brant community. Trust andrespect are the keys to theschool’s success. Studentsenjoy total intellectual free-dom, and unfettered interac-tion with other students andadults. Through being re-sponsible for themselves andfor the school’s operation,they gain the internal re-sources needed to lead effec-tive lives.”
Tuition at the Berlin facil-ity is under $6,000 a year andfinancial aid is available,Vivier said. The school issupported through fundrais-ing and tuition.
The school can accommo-date approximately 20 stu-dents and is accepting en-rollees at this time. Studentsfrom the New Britain sitewill now attend at the Berlinlocation.
“It’s a democratically runschool,” Nethercott said.Each staff and student hasone vote and everythingfrom the budget to the dailyrules to hiring and firing isdecided by the assembly.
“It helps them mature,”Nethercott said. Being partof the process also meansparticipants are invested inthe rules and all other as-pects of the operation of theprogram.
According to various on-line resources about Sud-bury schools, Sudburyschools are based on the be-lief that no kind of curricu-lum is necessary to preparea young person for adult life.Instead, these schools placeemphasis on learning as anatural by-product of all hu-
man activity. With this ap-proach, students individual-ly decide what to do withtheir time, and learn as a by-product of ordinary experi-ence rather than adopting adescriptive educational syl-labus or standardized in-struction by classes follow-ing a prescriptive curricu-lum. Students are given com-plete responsibility for theirown education and theschool is run by a directdemocracy in which stu-dents and staff are equals.
Unlike some democraticschools and “free schools”age groups are mixed andthere are no formal classes.Age-mixing is seen as a toolfor learning and develop-ment in all ages. Sudburyschools take the approachthat “class work” stems fromthe belief that every individ-ual learns what they need toknow through life and thatthere is no need to design acurriculum to prepare ayoung person for adult life.

“It’s going to be my best fairever.” That’s because formost of the past 30 years he’sworked the beer tent and has-n’t had as much opportunityas he might have liked to beout and about on the fair-grounds. “This year I’ll beable to really get involvedand live it. This is the firstyear I’ll get to see frog-jump-ing and all the shows you
miss when you have to doyour job.”
There are no major devel-opments on the fairgroundsthis year. The club spendsabout 25 percent of its profitsin maintenance and there’sbeen a lot of that going on.
“We’re keeping thegrounds fresh and clean.Mowing, painting — the bulkof it is done every week,”Glatz said crediting themany volunteers who spendcountless hours on thosetasks. The crews are outthere every Monday andWednesday for the finalweeks and people working inchurch and fire departmentbooths are getting their sitesready as well.

Here are a couple offair memories fromBerlin Lions Club mem-bers:
I was so proud and happy
to be President of the 2006Berlin Fair. This was a year-long commitment and I real-ly got to see and enjoy thefair. Before this I was on themowing committee andworked wherever neededduring the fair. I have at-tended the fair for over 40years and volunteered forover 25 years.
I made daily trips to thefairgrounds and watched asthe Lions did the projectsthat were approved for theyear such as roof repairs,painting, road repairs, land-scaping.
It was a joy to watch Lind-sey Fortunato and familyrenovate the Girl Scoutbuilding, and to see the dif-ferent churches and organi-zations prepare for the fair.
We had a record Saturdayattendance with GovernorM. Jodi Rell and AttorneyGeneral Richard Blumen-thal attending to honorLindsey Fortunato. I had agreat time handing out tro-phies and awards. I got tosee my first pig race, naildriving contest, children’s
tractor pull, entertainmentand walking around withmy family and tasting thedifferent foods.
We Lions put a lot ofplanning, time and workinto the fairgrounds andeach year improvements aremade.
We could not do this with-
out the help of volunteers,police and fire departmentsand most of all the familiesthat support our fair.
— Irene HillstrandPresident Berlin Fair
2006My favorite memories of
the Fair have to do with chil-dren.
Since my dad, WilliamMayer, was a Lion, my broth-ers and sisters and I used tobe able to run around thefairgrounds when we werekids.
We thought we were thecoolest because when wewent in to school on Thurs-day and Friday (yep, it usedto be a half day, not a wholeday off) we got to tell the oth-er kids what rides we likedand if there was anythingnew at the fair that year.
The children of the Lionsmembers used to play tagand hide-and-seek thosenights leading up to the fairand it was so much fun.
I’m not sure that my dador some of his friends, whoaren’t around today, wouldrecognize the fair.
There are many newthings each year. The placewhere all the kiddie ridesare, used to be parking. Thequarter midget track is newand has been a huge hit.Then there is the big stageand entertainment, anotherbig hit. I honestly can’t waitfor this year’s entertain-ment: country superstarPhil Vassar and ’70’s iconsGrand Funk Railroad.
I’m sure my dad wouldhave fought the change buthe would have loved the fi-nal product. Then he wouldtake his seat at the grill ofthe Berlin Lions food booth.That would never change.
Now the fair is about meworking as a member of theLions, but it’s also about giv-ing my children the sameopportunities I had.
They get to see the fair ina different way than theirfriends. It makes them feelspecial just like it did for meback in the day.

Letters to the EditorClergy is fighting VIP
To the editor:V. I. P. has different meanings. To me it means “very illegal
practice.” The town lawyers are doing their best in court tofight it. It also means “very immoral practice.” The role ofthe pastor is to help facilitate his parishioners to take thelead in fighting for their neighborhood against this very im-moral practice. Our sermons have pointed this out.
V. I. P. also means “very immature practice.” Becausemany men frequent the two adult immature and immoralplaces on the Berlin Turnpike, we have billboards near theseplaces to challenge them to help handle their childish im-moral behavior when they read the billboard that says,“Lord, help me to remember that nothing is going to happento me today that you and I together cannot handle.”
Billboards are drive-by prayers to help people handle theirtemptations of immoral behavior. Many other people comeand thank me for the billboards as the drive-by prayer givesthem strength to handle the cross of losing their jobs, theirhealth, their homes and many other crosses they have to car-ry.
Yes, we are fighting and speaking out through our ser-mons, our parishioners and the billboards.

By Dave CatlinSpecial to The Citizen
We are the KensingtonCafe and we first opened forbusiness on June 1, 2004 withlots of enthusiasm and greatintentions. After a fewmonths our enthusiasm waswavering and our great in-tentions were in doubt. Thenwe met Billy. Bill Gelminiwas a retired local restau-rantuer. His prominencecame from the old VillageRestaurant that used to be onFarmington Avenue, whereCVS is today. Billy liked ourplace and seemed to like us.He was a blunt man to put itmildly.
His initial comment to uswas, “Waddya crazy? Yacan’t sell nuked eggs andsausage to people fromBerlin!” Apparently, he didnot care for our fast food ap-proach to breakfast sand-wiches. And there began ourevolution. Hours of opera-tion changed, food prepchanged, service changed,and Billy came out of retire-ment. He taught us much. Weconsider 9/1/04 our officialGrand re-Opening.
The cafe is really about mywife, Sharon Catlin. It washer dream. With 35 years ofwaitress experience, she tru-ly understands customer ex-pectations and does her bestto see that those are met. Me,on the other-hand, I was a 33year veteran of corporatemanagement, who had justlost his job. I knew how torun stuff ! Or so Ithought...until Sharon firedme. It would appear that a lo-cal, friendly cafe was not atall like a big ball bearingcompany.
But, my appetite and ap-preciation for food was calledupon to create the standardsfor our menu. This was trulymy calling, instructing peo-ple how to make a great sand-wich, Dave Catlin-style.
Here we are five years intothe business. We have estab-lished our niche. The oneconstant is Sharon. Her handis in everything; cooking,serving, cleaning, purchas-ing and paying. We are fortu-nate to have the friendliestperson in town as our break-fast waitress. Debbie Landonmakes everyone’s morning alittle brighter.
The current economy hasimpacted everyone. Smallbusinesses are dropping allover the country. We have tak-en a number of steps to as-sure our survival, one ofwhich is a commitment tohold our prices during thesedifficult times, and look foropportunities to offer lowerprices or lower priced op-tions. We are all in this strug-
gle together.When we first opened in
2004, we made a logo that stat-ed “Est. 2004”. It was kind ofhumorous at the time, butnow it is starting to showsome meaning. We handed-out dozens of those Kensing-ton Cafe T-shirts to cus-
tomers and friends. Anyonewho still has that T-shirt andwears it into the Cafe duringSeptember 2009 will get a bighug and a free coffee.
For those who are still un-familiar with us, we are lo-cated on the High Road sideof the Ferndale Plaza inKensington, serving break-fast and lunch. Phone ordersare welcome, just call 828-9500. We accept Visa, MasterCard and checks that don’tbounce. And as always, ourcommitment to provide aquality product in a cleanand friendly atmosphere re-mains the same.

BHS coaching staff gets a makeover
By Nick CarrollSports Editor
The Berlin High Schoolathletics department hasadded three new coaches toits ranks; Amanda McCarthyhas been handed the reins ofthe girls swim team, SteveSoucy will lead the crosscountry team, and JimBarnes will navigate the girlsgolf program.
McCarthy, a recent BHSand Iona College graduate,replaces Eileen Thurston.McCarthy was an accom-plished swimmer in bothhigh school and college. “It’swonderful to have one of ourfirst star swimmers comeback to lead the program,”BHS athletics director JimDay said. “Her energy is go-ing to be a real positive.”
The girls swim team fin-ished third at the NutmegLeague meet and ninth in theCIAC Class M state meet in2008.
Soucy, a physical educa-tion teacher, takes over forlongtime coach Dave Scan-nell, who he assisted last sea-son. Soucy’s impressive run-ning resume includes fivemarathons, two ultra-marathons and an Ironmantriathlon.
In 2008, the BHS boys teamran to a sixth place finish atthe Northwest Conferencechampionship meet andplaced 15th at the CIAC ClassMM meet, while the girlsteam finished fifth at theNWC meet and 17th in ClassMM.
Barnes replaces Jim Bry-ers. The new head man, thefather of BHS golf great Eri-ca Barnes, played college golf“and really took his daugh-ter’s game to another level,”Day said.
Day was surprised Barnes
was interested in the BHSjob, but is thrilled to havehim on board. “He was ex-tremely enthusiastic, andhas a sound core value sys-tem about what he wants toget done with the girls,” Daysaid.
Last spring, the girls golfteam won the Northwest
Conference championshipand finished 10th at the CIACstate tournament.
BHS will welcome twomore new coaches relativelysoon. John Fote has resignedas head coach of the boysbasketball team. Fote, theteam’s third head man inthree years, cited career ad-
vancement as his reason forstepping down. “He was realemotional about leaving,”Day said. “With him, Ithought I had a coach foryears to come. But we’ll findsomebody.” As to when hewould like to have the posi-tion filled by, Day said “yes-terday.”
The boys basketball teamfinished 11-11 last winter.
Also, Scott Burns will notbe back to lead the very suc-cessful girls track and fieldteam. Burns spent 15 yearsat the helm of the program.
Day said Burns’ replace-ment will not be named be-fore January.

leaders
Local riflemanreturns to nationals
This summer, Berlinresident Andrew
Marzec, a member ofthe Connecticut Rifle
and Revolver Associa-tion, competed in the
National Smallbore Ri-fle Matches at CampPerry in Port Clinton,Ohio. Marzec is pic-tured above with the
Caswell Trophy, givento the first place StateAssociation team at
Camp Perry. Left,Marzec lines up a shot.
In July, Berlin’s Andrew Marzec, once again, competedin the National Smallbore Rifle Matches held at Camp Per-ry in Port Clinton, Ohio. The matches were founded byPresident Theodore Roosevelt in 1907.
This year, Marzec, 20, qualified for the Connecticut Rifleand Revolver Association. The team was comprised of thetop four junior (21-year-old and under) shooters in thestate, determined by local and regional matches held inthe months leading to the Camp Perry event.
In Ohio, the Connecticut team finished first in the StateAssociation match and placed third overall in the teammatch, falling only to the Australian National Team andthe U.S Army Marksmanship Unit.
“Camp Perry is recognized on a worldwide level as themost challenging range, as it is located right on Lake Erie.Weather and wind conditions take extreme changes in amoment’s time,” Marzec explained. “This year was no dif-ferent; the first day was by far the worst, with winds over30 miles-per-hour, heavy rain and temperatures in the 40sand 50s.”
In the end, Marzec finished 13th out of 69 in the Juniorcategory (ages 18-21), fifth out of 69 in the Junior AnySight Match and 58th overall in the 325-person field. Also,he was the overall match winner for the Any Sight 100-yard match, and he earned High Junior and High Colle-giate honors in some daily matches. “Many people believethis is the first time a community college student hasreached this position,” said Marzec, who attends TunxisCommunity College. “Usually, this place is dominated byNCAA Division 1 shooters who have time already struc-tured into their class schedules all year just for intensedaily practices.”
Marzec also competed in the Mentor Match at CampPerry, a match in which two shooters are paired togetherfor a combined score. Marzec competed alongside Aus-tralian Will Godward. The duo placed 20th out of 68 pairs.“Will is a world cup competitor and is likely to be a futureOlympian in London 2012,” Marzec said.
While in Ohio, Marzec and his Connecticut teammateswere invited to the Blackhawk team dinner. “The Black-hawk team is comprised of shooters who have reached in-credible milestones both on and off the range,” Marzecsaid. “It was inspiring to socialize with such accomplished

Do you and your family recycle? Youprobably have already learned howimportant it is for the environment.
Have you ever wondered whathappens after you put the newspaper,cans or glass in the bin? The MiniPage takes a closer look at thisimportant activity.A recycling tradition
People have always recycled. Beforemachines and big factories, mostthings were made by hand. Materialswere so hard to get and items took solong to make that everyone recycled.
For centuries, people have:
goods to make new toolsor jewelry;
buildings and reusedthe bricks or wood to
build something new;
other cloth goods to makeother clothes, quilts andrugs;
make new paper.
World War IIDuring World War II, America
needed metal and other materials tofight the war. The government starteda campaign to convince people torecycle.
Signs urged people to pile up theirscrap metal for collection. This couldinclude things such as pots and pans,rakes, ironsor birdcages.These metalobjects mightthen berecycled asbullets. Kidspulled wagonsfrom door todoor gathering the metal.
After the war was over, materialsremained scarce, and people continuedto recycle for many years.
Environmental movementIn the 1960s, people became more
concerned about the environment.They started to realize we were usingup the Earth’s resources.
In the 1970s, rising energy costs anda gasoline shortage made people pay
attention to vanishingfuel. At the same time,landfills got full andthere was no place toput the waste.
People re-learned how important itis not to waste resources. It becameclear that recycling was necessary.
In 1960, the United States recycledaround 6 percent of its waste. Todaywe are recycling about 33 percent, orone-third, of our waste.
Americans create about 254 milliontons of garbage each year. We recycleonly about 85 million tons of that.

The first time there wasa major governmentcampaign to educatepeople about theimportance of recyclingwas during World WarII. The governmenturged people to salvage,or save, metal, paper,rubber and othermaterial.

Electronic waste Items such ascomputers, TVs andcell phones createspecial recyclingproblems. They are
made of so many different materials,they must be handled extra-carefully.
Communities may have specialtimes or places for people to bringelectronic waste, or e-waste, forrecycling. E-waste cannot be mixedwith other recycling materials. E-wasterecyclerstake specialcare so thatnobody ishurt. Therehave beenproblemswith somee-waste facilities in China. Circuitboard metals have ended up inChinese rivers, polluting the water.People have gotten sick.
Reusing recycled materialsSometimes recycled material is
turned back into what it was in thefirst place. For example, recycled paperis turned into new paper products.
Special Recycling Needs
Products with mercuryOther types of waste, such as
fluorescent bulbs and thermometers,also need special care. Workers wearprotective clothing when recyclingthese products.
Mercury is a dangerous material usedin fluorescent bulbs and thermometers.It is safe when it is contained in glass. However, mercury vaporizes, or turnsto gas, easily when it is not contained.Workers break the glass in special roomswhere the mercury gas cannot escape.
