Electronics that have some stupid simple problem like a broken wire or blown fuse.

[–] [deleted] • 4 pts

Fucking Chinks make that shit like that. To fix the wire you have to break the cheap plastics.

Be me, buy a broken guitar amp for $10 worth $100. Open it up. Hmmm just needed a fuse. :)

Paper, Cardboard, aluminum (any semi+ valuable metal), and glass.

The easiest recycled things, that work the best recycled.

Plastic recycling is a fucking joke at this point.

Glass, becomes glass. There is a company that no longer needs to sort color. Paper and cardboard become paper... Aluminum (so on) becomes fucking aluminum (or so on)...

I'm with you on all of this. I think glass jars are worth keeping for other uses.

[–] • 1 pt

Glass jars are. They make excellent misc holders for the garage and the lid can be glued to a board to hold it store the jars in the air.

Glass and aluminum recycling has an energy cost that surpasses any savings that you get from it.

See we always say new glass costs x and recycling glass costs y... but do we really consider the actual costs of the cleanup and such down the road... No we say that cost doesnt exist.

I am not a climate fag, we cannot buy our way out of the bullshit global warming, co2 levels, ozone layer, all the oil being gone... and other made up shit.

We can however, keep from dumping shit into large piles of garbage because we dont want to cover the cost of cleaning up after ourselves.

Its an energy cost, we can cover an energy cost to not put that shit into a place where it just sits until we decide to clean it up.

That also doesnt explain how fucking bums are still selling pounds of aluminum to scrap yards...

Recycling aluminum is the number one way to get aluminium its easier to recycle than make new.

All garbage. Afterburn that shit and use what's left over for energy.

In the US, almost everything sent there. Household waste should be separated into categorized bins; Compost, Glass, Aluminum, Steel, Burnable waste, Non-burnable waste, and E-waste. Unfortunately there is no incentive for consumers to do this and this results in a particularly putrid communal dumpster situation for a first world country.

Even if household consumers separate their waste the garbage collection would throw it all in the landfill anyway because recycling in the US doesn't exsist. It was a scam to decrease the guilt in consumers and increase single use plastic consumption.

The only thing that should go to landfills is ash, and in some cases non-burnable waste.

Some ash can even be used, wood ash is great as fertilizer for some plants as it contains a lot of potassium hydroxide.

Glass - 100% recyclable with a little heat.

Batteries. They cause fires.

Most metals

[–] • 9 pts

Don’t worry, I’m 200 years we will be mining the dumps for metals.

I legitimately think this will happen at some point. So many goodies in there.

I have also long said that landfills will become highly desirable plots to own someday
