A: What do you think about introducing a new recycling scheme in the city?

B: Well, I agree to a certain extent. I think it would be a good idea to promote recycling and reduce waste, but it's not that simple.

A: Why do you say that?

B: Well, for example, people may not have enough space in their homes to separate the different materials for recycling. One solution could be to provide more recycling bins in public areas, but it would require a lot of investment.

A: Hmm, I suppose you're right. But I still think we should do something to tackle the problem of waste.

B: Yes, I agree. We need to find a way to make recycling more convenient for people. Maybe if we raise awareness about the benefits of recycling, people will be more motivated to do it.

A: That sounds like a good idea. So, you don't think we should just forget about it?

B: No, I don't think you're totally wrong. We need to find a way to make it work. Maybe we could start small and see how it goes.
