    Actually macho it probably will be recycled. What they do is (unless it is a landfill which I doubt) is take that raw stuff and seperate it. Waste management is a pretty big business.

    And who knows maybe they will find a 1914 Ruth rookie in there too.

    Since we are on this topic, I might as well comment too.

    What concerns me in the USA is the waste and over use of landfills. A lot of that garbage can be reprocessed into raw material that can later be used in production. Relying on landfills just erodes our environment.

    In Germany, residents have bins for various materials: cardboard, food wastes/biodegradable stuff, green glass, clear glass, newspapers. Batteries, oil, and radiator fluid have their own depot.

    Here in California, EVERYTHING goes in one dumpster. Maybe if you are lucky, yard waste is separated, but that's it.

    Batteries, computer parts, plastics, metal objects, etc. all go into the dumpster when they should be separated. I do my best to keep batteries in one place until I go to visit Ikea where they have a bin for batteries and even light bulbs. Those toxins don't belong in a landfill. If it biodegradable stuff, a landfill is OK, no harm done.

    It is a hobby or something that requires extra effort to get the recycling thing correct here in California, where in Germany, it's just part of life, thus more efficient.

    My wife is a big environmentalist. EVERY FREAKING TIME we go to IKEA, the second she walks in the door she goes, "Aww man! We forgot those damn light bulbs again."

    I'm starting to wonder if I collect cards or lightbulbs. image

    Co mingled crap is seperated at plants around the country mainly by a company called Waste Management. You may think it is not being recycled but it in fact is. Most states do not allow the use of landfills for plastics and bottles. After the stuff is sperated the biodegradable stuff is put into piles and orgnanic materials are made from it. It is truly a big business. Waste management charges the customer to haul the stuff away, then sells the finished recycled product. I think they get $200 a ton. Communities want you to seperate bcause they are charged less that way when dumping.
