### 3/5 — Recyclers

*2025-11-08, version 2.0.3(10)*

I tried contacting the recyclers to give a second life to pieces of wood but they don’t reply! 
Knowing the air quality is great but it does not seem that strong and appropriate measure are taken to reduce air pollution and noise from car traffic, especially in Rose-Hill. Honking should be banned.
