I'd assume/hope they're capturing the gases from the burning, but do you know if that produces anything usable or something we also need to then figure out what to do with?
- mojomark 7y agoYou're assumption, unfortunately, is incorrect.[1][2] 1.) Ocean City, MD opts to burn recyclables in Covanta Incinerators (selfish, awesome): https://www.oceancity.com/ocean-city-has-no-plans-to-return-recycling/ https://www.oceancity.com/ocean-city-has-no-plans-to-return-... 2.) Covanta Incinerators are bad despite what the company claims (selfish, shocking): https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/too-much-pollution/ https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/too-much-pollution/
