[GreenYes] Re: Recycling Markets


FYI, there is a somewhat related growing and worrisome problem in Latin America and the Caribbean with existing electrical and electronic operating equipment – transformers, pumping stations, phone lines, power cables, even traffic lights – being stolen and stripped for their metals, and then being shipped off to China masquerading as legitimate scrap exports “for recycling.”

Subject: [GreenYes] Recycling Markets

 

With all the uproar over Chinese product defects lately (pet food, toothpaste, jewelry, etc.) and quality concerns, I was wondering if anyone is seeing motion toward keeping recycling local where materials are sent overseas (mainly an issue for the West Coast) -- either on a local/state policy level, or recycler operations level.
