Author says recycling industry failed to plan for changes to the waste and recycling stream

2015-07-08 20:19:22| Waste Management - Topix.net

Adam Minter, author of 'Junkyard Plant,' says recycling industry decline isn't because Americans have lost interest in recycling but because of the gradual shift in what Americans throw away. In a July 7, 2015, article published by Bloomberg, Adam Minter, the Asia-based author of Junkyard Planet: Travels in the Billion Dollar Trash Trade , says the "national crisis" that Waste Management's David Steiner says the recycling industry is experiencing in the U.S. is not the fault of America's declining interest in recycling but of the industry's failure to plan for the changing waste and recycling stream.
