More than recycling, PIRG is first and foremost against nuclear power. That is Nader’s pet issue.
Obama specifically mentioned the recycling which is why I put it in. I will check my bookmarks to find the specific quote and article if it hasn’t disappeared yet! The reason it stuck in mind is because when Obama was interviewed after his AA selection to President of the Harvard Law Review he mentioned the two jobs he had in NYC which he claimed enabled him to pay off the loans for his 2nd year at Occidental plus his two years at Columbia. The job with BIC paid $15,000/yr which he left to take the job with PIRG for slightly less than $10,000
