It is because of consumer behaviors. Stop trying to blame the government and corporations for simply producing what people want in the first place. If you go in France and then in the USA, you will see that the SAME companies sell DIFFERENT products in both countries. Why? Because the only thing companies do is supply what their target consumers want to purchase. For example, in Europe, Volkswagen only sells small cars, most models available have NEVER been available in North America. In contrast, in North America, Volkswagen sells big SUVs, some like the Atlas are so big that they aren't even offered in Europe. The most profitable vehicle from Volkswagen, the Golf, isn't available anymore in the USA since 2-3 years because they didn't sell. Actually, all car manufacturers (Toyota, Ford, Volkswagen, Honda and so on) all stopped selling small vehicles in North America becuase they didn't sell. Actually, if it was just a question of profits, Volkswagen would only sell the Golf in all markets, because they would make much more profits by having to manufacture just one car sold at a premium price for its performance. But that's not how life works. Companies can't sell something that people don't want in the first place. Pollution will be reduced when everyone will make efforts to change their lifestyle. The average American consumer produces more than twice more trash, almost 3 times more CO2 and consumes almost 4 times more water than the average French citizen. All of this is because both French and American citizens have different lifestyles and consumption behaviors.

It’s worse for the climate to burn waste rather than bury it. CO2 emissions enter the atmosphere rather than staying locked inside petroleum products.

The production of goods based on a consuming economy, where you use and throw away, excessive packaging, lack of recyclable products and actions, lack of donations on the don't-need-it-anymore products, that's the problem.

Why don't we take the waste already in landfills and incinerate it? I mean, I know the transportation to an incinerator would be a problem, but why not just build the incinerator at the landfill? There's probably enough fuel source at large landfills to last decades and make it worthwhile. Plus all the metal recovered.

I am glad they mentioned landfill emissions. Most people think we bury it and its safely packed away. But actually tons of it slowly rots away and releases methane and other toxic gasses. Burning it at a very high temperature will destroy all chemicals, poisonous gasses, plastics and refrigeration gasses like R12 and R22. The resulting energy recovery is a huge bonus. Plus with modern exhaust after treatments we have today older plants can be up fitted to make them even cleaner.

It's sad that North America so often appears more than 30 years behind Europe in so many ways. 1) In the early 80's, hands-free phones while driving in the UK 2) In Liechtenstein, in the early 80's, drivers were required to turn their vehicles off when they were further than the third car from the front of a line at a red light. 3) Europeans (and China) have done extensive studies on traffic regarding safety (vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists), traffic flow and the optimum length of a traffic light cycle (The time from when a specific light at an intersection turns green to the next time it turns green). It's 31 seconds max! 4) In Switzerland, clothes dryers are banned in residences. Instead, they use a spinner that removes so much water that the laundry is perfect for ironing or they hang the laundry indoors, and use a fan to dry the laundry fully. Note: Switzerland rarely has high humidity. 5) Incinerators: In the early 80's, Germany built an incinerator that was fully controlled by a computer with one person overseeing the operation. The building had a pit in the middle and there were doors, similar to garage doors, on three sides of the building. The garbage trucks (Europe has been recycling paper, glass, plastic and metal for decades) back up to the open 'garage' door and dump the waste onto a platform below surface level. Then, from below where the garage door is, a blade like a bulldozer blade, pushes the garbage into the incinerator pit. But, this is controlled bym the computer to maintain an optimum temperature to burn the cleanest. The heat also turned turbines, producing electricity. 6) In Switzerland, since before 1982, everyone took their glass and plastics with them to the grocery store, where they put them in the proper bins. Glass was sorted according to colour (green, brown and clear) and plastics according to type. This way a LOT less trucking occurred. Who doesn't go to the grocery store? Nowadays, metals are also collected. If one has any garbage that is not compostable or recyclable, one pays to have it removed. It's not cheap. For example, one searches for a company willing to take used furniture to resell. (There's no Ikea in Switzerland because most of its furniture doesn't last long enough and is overall not best for the environment in the long term. 7) Switzerland has long be considered a 'battery' in Europe. It has many hydro-electric dams. However, at times other countries in Europe produce too much electricity. This is sent to Switzerland where it is used to pump water back up into the reservoir, in effect storing the electricity. Ontario claims they do the same, but I have never come across such a site. 8) In flues from industry, including incinerators there are three gases which need to be trapped because of their negative effect on the environment. One of my father's (Dr. of chemistry) ideas was to install three racks, one for each undesirable gas, in the flues. Each rack held pellets which would absorb a specific gas, such as sulphur. In addition, the pellets could then be sold to industries that use said 'gases' (or chemical elements), who would extract them. With the invention of the internet, there is no reason North America should be so far behind Europe. It is my opinion that its a result of the mindset of politicians and government employees. Too often I have found that they do not want to listen to solid, logical solutions from 'outside,' i.e., 'outsiders' don't know what they're talking about or it might be 'too much trouble' (LOL!) or the proposal would cost the politicians political donations. Example: The mayor of Ottawa ,and many city counsellors, received campaign contributions from a specific developer's family members. The mayor alone received $11,0000 from one family. The developer's proposal will send untreated storm water directly into a small stream. This stream is already flooding much needed sportfields. Storm water runoff contains contaminated waste, such as, rubber from vehicle tires, oils from the same, road salt (Really good at killing both wildlife and vegetation), and an expensive liquid chemical blend which the city sprays on the road salt to make it activate slightly faster. The city council approved this proposal even though there were protests against it.

The transformation and transportation processes required to bring all that stuff to someone's house creates a massive amount of trash.

I wish they would donate and recycle more, I saw so many boxes. Composting is another great way to go about this. And of course reducing.

“Zero Landfill” is misleading. I am an environmental engineer, and I have worked with several of these waste-to-energy (which is just a nicer way to say “incinerator”) facilities, and there is still a significant amount of ash left over after the burning is complete that still needs to be disposed of. This ash, along with used filters and other disposable materials that remove toxic gases from the exhaust all go to landfills. This isn’t to say that waste-to-energy is necessarily bad for the environment, but it is not as perfect a solution as this video describes. There is still waste leftover to be disposed of, and there exist incineration facilities in the US that don’t abide by regulations and pollute the air like you wouldn’t believe. It really depends on how well these facilities are managed, and how environmentally conscious they are. But of course with proper waste reduction, we won’t need to worry about that so much.

In Norway, the WTE is free for all persons to use. If you move and you have a sofa, left over paint, TV, clothes and basicly what you have in a home it free to get rid of. When you get to there you put your trash in large bins for metal, wood, electronics etc. They will burn your sofa, melt your TV. Well, you get the picture? No you do not because the TV just melted. Haha. Bad humor on my part. That heat will be used in Oslo where I live to heat up almost 1/8 of the city. They have huge hot water pipes under ground from this WTE plant that goes in to my apt. So I turn on the radiator in my bedroom the WTE can be as far away as 13 miles. Just like they said in the program Scandinavia is so small that we have to import trash from Germany. The natural winner here is Iceland. The WTE from volcanos is super awesome! When I die I want to be burned. Some people say that my life was waisted. My death will for sure no be. Lol! Sorry.

We're unlikely to find a single answer that leads to zero problems, so the goal is to find a combination that causes the least damage. Any benefits such as energy and metal recovery are just nice extras. We need to focus on creating as little waste as possible in the first place.

Use Singapore's example: 1) Extract ALL recyclables. Recycle it. 2) Extract all compostable parts. Compost it. 3) Waste to energy ( burn) the rest.

The head of sustainability says that the facility only takes items that can't be recycled but glass, paper, some types of plastic, and all the cardboard shown in many scenes, can be recycled before burning. Communities need to know that WTE means saving space ok landfills...not just throwing everything away.

New plants can filter the exiting gas and the only harmful materials worth mentioning is the resulting co2 and fly ash.

The fly ash can be solidified and used as filler in for example salt mines below the water table so it cant leach.

Interesting documentary Green energy and recycling are the best options

Am I the last person to know this exists? This certainly has some ways to go but this is a pretty cool bit of progress. News and media always focuses on gas and solar, but never interesting stuff like this.

This video is largely misinformation. Almost every point being made has a huge (probably deliberate) error in it. The chart at 13:46 is utterly false. Nuclear is not the second most expensive way to generate electricity, it is far and away the cheapest that's why nuclear power plants sell their energy at or below four cents per kwh which is about 1/5 of wind and solar. Gas generation varies from eight cents to thirty cents depending on how 'on demand' it is, and energy from waste is off-the-scale if you have to *pay* to drop off *fuel* . Also, the idea that energy from waste emits less CO2 than gas generators is frankly laughable. However, the gist of this is correct: It is better to burn than to bury waste. That part is correct even if the costs are much higher and it has *nothing* to do with emissions of methane which are so volatile that they just *never* accumulate in the atmosphere.

Building a new Nuclear power plant is one of the most expensive ways to generate electricity in the US and EU! China and some other countries with lower labor costs, less public opposition and fewer regulatory hassles are still building new Nuclear capacity. In the US and EU except France we are unlikely to see more Nuclear built any time soon. And by the way Nuclear is a base load power that can't be quickly ramped up and down like natural gas plant or batteries 🔋 therefore they sell at a "loss". Nuclear power plant is a 50 year investment so they calculate LCOE (levelized cost of energy) and if it's not worth it they ask for incentives from the government. Solar PV is one of the cheapest ways to generate electricity. On the country side it can be even more affordable since we can avoid costly grid upgrades by local production and storage. Wind is only cheap at scale in desirable locations. Hydro isn't pricey either but most suitable locations are already producing. Lastly, efficiency improvements can be cheaper than adding new capacity :)
