Abstract/Contents: | "Recovery of municipal solid waste (MSW) continues to rise at an impressive pace, but there are signs that the curbside recycling juggernaut is beginning to slow down. Biocycle's annual 'State of Garbage in America' survey shows the nation's recycling rate-which includes yard trimmings composting-increased to 23 percent in 1994 from 19 percent in 1993. Curbside recycling service was provided to 108 million people or 41 percent of U.S. households. States reporting the highest recycling rates in 1993 all increased their recovery in 1994." Yard trimmings facilities increased to 3,202 in 1994. |
