Workers at Wal-Mart separate cardboard, plastics, paper and aluminum beverage cans before using a baling machine in the store's back storage room to compress them into 600-pound cubes.

I wish to tahnk anyone who did not pass this by. The manager at this store is an awesome human being. A man with a conscience, who is trying to do what Walmart is suppose to do. Give back to the community in which it resides. He is is bucking the views of those who like and hate Walmart, so either way this town is going to get the deed done with the resources available.....employees and a portion of the community that does care about the planet.

Thank you for this posting as it appears that true change will only occur when enacted by our largest corporations as both Democrats and Republicans do not seem to see the bigger picture. Grren business is good business!
