Wyoming residents are turning their state into a massive dumping ground

Renee Jean reports:
This year alone, his office plans to clear nearly two dozen different dumps — most of them habitual. They contain all manner of rubbish, from appliances, furniture, yard waste and bullet casings to abandoned cars, boats, and other unwanted debris from the modern world. The trash will lie hidden in remote ditches, rusting or molding away, forgotten, alongside otherwise pristine trees and prairie grass.
The BLM’s list of places to clean up this year is roughly three times the number of sites cleaned up last year, but that’s due to better outreach and education, Waldo said. More success in getting field offices to report illegal dumping sites.

No mention of programs to recycle, in any form of the word.
