For recycling to work, manufacturers have to use 100% of recycled material.
If they don't it's obviously going to go to landfill.
Landfill will help with global warming anyway, making the country slightly higher to negate the effect of rising sea levels. ;D
No unfortunately it won't......don't forget the Methane the landfill gives off is a 'greenhouse' gas!
The thing that's been bothering me recently is out of date prescriptions....what happens to all those unused drugs. I asked my local pharmacist and she said the stuff that was still in date went to 3rd world countries that needed them but she just said the rest was disposed of but she didn't know where.
