Re: Space. From the PDF: >Anti-recycling myth #3: Landfill space is cheap and abundant. > Fact: Landfill space is a commodity, priced according to supply and demand. The majority of the growth of recycling in the United States has occurred in populated regions where landfills are expensive relative to the U.S. average. I stared at this for a while trying to get at the heart of the issue. The response isn't "no, there isn't space." More like, market forces show that it isn't cheaper than recycling. Perhaps the argument use to be "why bother recycling at all if creating new is cheaper"? I think it's currently a de facto non-issue: Things that are worth recycling are being recycled, and things that aren't are going to be dumped/burned.
