02.01.2010 CRI report analyzes the effects of single-stream recycling
|
|
|
Over the past decade, many
municipalities have shifted to a single-stream system of recyclables
collection, in which glass, metal, plastic, and paper are collected in a
single receptacle.
|
 |
While single-stream
collection is more convenient for consumers and results
in lower
collection costs, it also results in more contamination of collected
materials, lower material quality, and increased waste.
Using data from industry reports and
interviews with recyclers, CRI has produced "Understanding
economic and environmental impacts of single-stream collection systems,"
a report that highlights the economic and environmental impacts of
switching to
a single-stream system.
