Strategies for Success. Generally, successful recycling programs
will begin based on one or two profitable commodities. Then, as organizational
and operational details get worked out, the program expands to include others.
To be successful, any recycling program needs the attention of the base
commander, at least initially. The programs require widespread publicity and
support. Base newspapers and bulletins are essential media for publicizing the
programs. Some lessons learned from successful service programs are listed
below.
1.
The key to a successful recycling program is education. People need
to be convinced of the merits of the idea and must see some reward
before they will participate. New family housing orientation sessions
shall stress recycling. Contests with monetary rewards for the best
participating unit generate and sustain interest in recycling.
2.
Education should really begin at the grade school level so people are
conditioned at an early age to appreciate the merits of recycling.
3.
The recycling efforts should receive frequent publicity in the post's
newspaper and through bulletin notices.
