Fresno (No. 1 for a good reason!) [Winning Wednesday]



It's nice to open your paper and actually see a "good" story about your city.

Among large California (the most populous state in the US) cities, Fresno tied with Huntington Beach for diverting the most trash from its landfills.

"In 2006, both cities sent 71% of solid waste to recycling programs, according to the most recent data available from the California Integrated Waste Management Board".

That's pretty awesome! It's nice to make the top of a list that doesn't involve air pollution, murder, or methamphetamine.
