<human>: I live in an in-law apartment in my parents' house because I am a full-time undergrad, about to be a full-time grad. I do pay rent and help with bills.

Our town voted to require recycling a long time ago. My parents don't recycle and it really upsets me because a: it's against our town laws and b: very detrimental to the environment. Our waste management company offers curb-side pick up so there's really no excuse except laziness.

I have tried confronting my parents about it but they won't budge. I feel REALLY strongly about this, but am unsure how to move forward. Should I confront them again? What if they refuse again? I have thought about offering to cover the difference in the trash bill but money is an issue for me!

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: parents don't recycle which upsets me because it's against town laws and bad for the environment. I want them to.
