I currently live in/operate from a minivan, so waste for me is a smaller version of the waste problem on the ISS or in a small, rural community. Namely, do I haul or burn. I decided to sort and haul with extreme prejudice. Before I took off on my hacker tourism trip I was living in a suburban McMansion. The house was large and empty; my roommate was a recent divorcé whose kids had all moved out. We were both meticulous recyclers, and I sort all organic waste out of the trash and into the earth (a brief aside: I put it all into the ground. Many in the gardening world say this is bad; i disagree because nitrogen.). The net effect was a full recycle bin (two wheel standing bin) once a week and a half full rubbish bin (same design) once a month. I believe that the key to reducing landfills and capturing trapped/wasted raw materials is an at-home solution. Maybe a sorting and storage device that can be picked up. This concept would be similar to the 2-way power scheme some energy providers use with solar supplement customers.
