Which of the following is good strategy for overcoming obstacles to recycling? 
A) reduce subsidies for reuse and post-consumer waste recycling 
B) reduce fees for household garbage collection 
C) increase tax breaks for resource extracting industries 
D) require eco-labels that evaluate life cycle environmental costs

Requiring eco-labels that evaluate life cycle environmental costs would incentivize companies to make products with easier recyclability and would help consumers make informed decisions about what they purchase and how they dispose of it. This could ultimately increase the amount of materials being recycled and reduce obstacles to recycling. The other choices either do not address obstacles to recycling or could potentially make the situation worse.
