Get 10 cents for every empty bottle or can. It’s one of many ways to resist Trump’s attack on the environment It's cool that Baltimore's Mr. Trash Wheel, the trash interceptor based in the city's Inner Harbor, is a worldwide celebrity. He's had some viral moments and enjoyed lots of attention for several years now. But so has all the trash that floats with every rain into the Inner Harbor, a chronic and depressing phenomenon. It would not be so bad if Maryland instituted a 10-cent deposit on every beverage bottle and can -- some of the estimated 5.5 billion of them that people across the state go through every year. http://danrodricks.com/2026/01/14/get-10-cents-for-every-empty-bottle-or-can-its-one-of-many-ways-to-resist-trumps-attack-on-the-environment/
