“The commodity value of recycled materials has really just fallen away to the point where it is a cost negative to be disposing of recyclable materials,” Myers said. “Right now we are paying more to get rid of recyclables on a per ton basis than if it all went into the trash.”
It's a sad situation as we are awash in our own trash. It will haunt our children and grand children in the future.
But I understand that these towns have to do what is best to save money.
Hopefully our new "space force" will figure out a way to ship our trash to another planet.
