Recyclables Are Back To Junk Value
Tuesday, 19 April 2011
Due to the economic downturn, the market for recycled materials have taken a decline. Junk is now piling up in yards and warehouses of recycling contractors because they can’t find buyers and are not willing to sell at very low prices.
Briana Sternberg, a education and outreach coordinator for Sedona Recycles, says that the junk either ends up in a landfill or begins to cost them money. It is an awful time to recycle.
what can we do to help? i’m a PRO-recycler, and would love to know what can be done to solve the problem – is it solveable? and would love to get the word out, too! thanks!
