TRASH DISPOSAL: SCROLL DOWN TO VIDEO ON THE SUBJECT
This was apparently a
video done for Century Village, yet there was no yellow container shown for the
disposal of paper goods!
As unhelpful as this
was, the man WAS right in saying that bottles should not be put in a plastic
bag and the plastic bag of bottles then be put in the blue container. I know
this from the brochure given Ken Graff and me when we went on a tour of the
45th Street recycling facility a few years ago. Ken took photos while I wrote
an article on the subject for the Reporter.
We saw what happens to
these plastic bags of bottles. A conveyor belt brings the contents of the blue
recycle containers to a room high above the ground-floor dumpster disposal area
where the trucks drop their loads. We could see this because we ourselves were
in a similar viewing room at the same height above the floor. A man in the
recycle room separates out the plastic bags of bottles from the rest of the
glassware, but not by taking the bottles out of each bag.
Instead, he throws the bags WITH THE BOTTLES AND GLASSWARE IN THEM through a
hole in the floor, where they fall some 40 feet onto the ground floor dumpster
disposal area. This is kind of fun to watch. Ba-boom go the bags, one by one.
Thus, however, all the
work anyone had done in separating out bottles goes for naught if they had put
the bottles in a plastic bag! In fact, you would have saved both yourself and
the recycle facility time if you had just tossed the bag of bottles in the
dumpster. Or not separated out the bottles in the first place! The tour guide
did not explain all this—I suppose it would not have been the best advertising.
But I saw it, asked the guide about it, and she confirmed what I've just
described.
Interestingly, on a part
of the tour we were told what the future of trash disposal held. There
were prototypes in various places in the country, the tour guide explained. The
trash then would NO LONGER BE DIVIDED as it is now. Everything would go into
one pile, we would go back to the old way of doing things in a sense, and
machinery would do the dividing.
The best thing we can do
now, of course, is to use both recycle containers and, as the man in the video
explained, not put our glassware in any plastic bags.
