    China said it would no longer import "foreign garbage." That means that dozens of U.S. town are sending plastics and papers to landfills.https://nyti.ms/2L64iSe

        1) For me, the fact China took so much of our recycling is new information. 2) If we keep going in this environmental direction Wall-E, that cute little robot Pixar movie, will in approximately 100 years be a documentary.

        At the same time, with new trademarks for Ivanka Trump, it will continue to produce foreign garbage.

        Wow. These maybe some of the most ignorant responses ever. Face it, recycling was always an artificial market. Reduce and reuse are the only answers.

        It wasn’t 100% garbage. It was baled recycled material that had garbage in it. Over 10 years it becomes a lot.

        The problem’s not recyclables…the Chinese no longer want to accept difficult to dispose of toxic waste that we have been shipping to them in barges.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1001501686177910784 …

        This is not a big risk because garbage is a renewable agent that can be used in 100 years or less. I recommend that we do not rely on others for environmental issues. As humans, we can take advantage of some of the fountains we leave, such as recycling some things that we can 🌏
