[GreenYes] Re: Zero Waste helps stop Climate Change


John,



Wow, that is an impressive model. Have you, or anyone else, run the discard
recovery vs. bury/burn issue through it yet?

While this result is interesting, it has both been reported several times
before by others, and limits itself to only one environmental issue - global
climate change.



Rather than only considering one environmental element, I recommend that the
examination be broadened to a more holistic approach, such as that used by
the BEES system and European studies, and shown on the Internet at
http://www.bfrl.nist.gov/oae/software/bees/model.html.



Best wishes for a wonderful 2007,

Greenhouse Gases in California Through Waste Prevention and Recycling
by Scott Smithline
California Progress Report - Oakland,CA,USA

Ton for ton, recycling reduces more pollution, saves more energy and reduces
GHG emissions more than any other solid waste management option.
Californians currently throw away millions
<http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?key=260590189&url_num=2&url=
http://www.cawrecycles.org/facts_and_stats> of tons of recyclable materials
every year. According to the California Integrated Waste Management Board,
over 60 percent of the "garbage" in California landfills can be composted or
recycled. Increasing recycling should be California's priority strategy for
reducing global warming effects associated with solid waste management...
