根据Pete Grogan,Reyerhaeuser公司的回收市场开发经理,以及对资源回收权的国家公认权威,美国有机会显着提高其可回收材料的恢复。

格罗根估计,美国人每年要处理价值30亿美元的可回收纸张。“把纸扔进垃圾填埋场不是一种可持续的做法,”格罗根说。“它耗尽了资源,浪费了能源,也意味着失去了参与价值数百万美元的循环经济部门的机会。”

“美国在11月15日回收日期是及时提醒的是,回收对环境有益,对经济良好,”格戈根说。“我们已经取得了进展,但我们需要做得更好。今天,美国恢复了53%的论文,日本恢复了70%的论文。

“Weyerhaeuser和其他公​​司正在做出良好的纸质回收,但我们需要更多的纸张来自您的公众。对每个人的回收纸的需求每年增加1000万吨,”Grogan说。纸铣刀使用回收的纸张和包装以制造新产品,包括办公纸,包装和运输容器。

“我们错过了一个很好的机会。我们估计美国每年都有30至3500万吨的纸张,”格里昂说。“只有55%的居住在单家庭住宅中的美国人都有住宅回收服务,其中只有50%的服务使用该服务。我们需要做得更好。

“凭借忠诚的居民,政府和公司,很容易做出回收工作,”他说。

GROGAN于11月13日在犹他州汇回联盟的秋季会议上提供主题演讲。小组将在“SF回收”的旅游和午餐会上庆祝美国回收日,这是盐湖艺术中心的新艺术展。展览特色艺术艺术由旧金山的其余垃圾送到垃圾填埋场。想要查询更多的信息:http://www.centralpt.com/pageview.aspx?id=17860

关于Pete Grogan:

最近赢得了国家回收联盟的终身成就奖的Grogan于1976年在博尔多,科罗尔的博尔德创立生态周期时开始了他的回收职业。,提供住宅回收服务。后来,作为与R.W. Beck and Associates的顾问,他帮助在整个北美的市政回收方案开始。他于1993年加入了韦伊埃海尔。

关于Weyerhaeuser:

Weyerhaeuser公司是世界上最大的森林产品公司之一,于1900年注册成立。2006年,销售额为219亿美元。它在全球客户提供18个国家的办事处或运营。Weyerhaeuser主要从事木材的不断增长和收获;林产品的制造,分销和销售;和房地产建设,发展和相关活动。每年在美国康复的5300万吨纸上每年都会消耗400万吨恢复的纸张。该公司管理额外的300万吨纸,这些纸被全世界的再生造纸厂消耗。有关Weyerhaeuser的业务,产品和实践的其他信息//www.noirla.com/

事实:回收对环境和商业至关重要——回收对环境和经济都有好处。回收利用可节省能源、节约自然资源,并可带来可观的收入和就业。——我们已经取得了进步,但还需要做得更好。今天,美国回收了53%的纸张,日本回收了70%的纸张。对回收纸张的需求持续增长。这为市政当局、企业和我们作为公民的所有人提供了一个参与数十亿美元的循环经济部门的大好机会。——社区从循环利用中获得巨大的经济和环境价值。有了坚定的居民、政府和公司,回收工作很容易开展。证据点:——回收利用对环境有好处——根据杜克大学纸张任务小组的报告,用回收材料而不是原始纤维制造新纸和包装可以保护自然资源(树木),减少固体废物、空气污染和温室气体的一半。——最大限度地利用森林资源。 Paper can typically make approximately eight recycle trips. - If Americans recycled all recyclable commodities, we would conserve four percent of the nation's current energy use. Source: Steel Can Recycling Institute -- Recycling is good for the economy. These facts prove recycling's viability (figures below are for all materials, not just paper) Source: National Recycling Coalition--R.W. Beck study - More than 56,000 public and private sector facilities. - More than a million direct jobs, 1.5 million indirect jobs. - $236 billion in gross annual sales. - $37 billion in annual payroll - Industry represents nearly 3% of the gross domestic product (GDP). -- Business focus: material value, resource value and environment. - Your morning paper and cereal box are made with recycled material. o Recovered paper and packaging are used by paper mills to remanufacture new products, including office paper, packaging and shipping containers. This saves energy and reduces pollution in the remanufacturing process. - Weyerhaeuser recovers seven million tons per year. That's the equivalent of a line of tractor trailers from New York to California and back. The U.S. currently recovers 54 million tons per year. That's enough trucks to do a lap and a half around the equator. -- We've made good progress recycling in the U.S., but there's more work to be done. - Global demand for recovered paper is increasing by 10 million tons a year but U.S. supply is increasing at less than two million tons per year. - Today more than 8,500 cities provide residential collections to their residents, representing more 55% of the single-family homes in America. We're missing nearly half the country's material and throwing billions of dollars into the landfill. While more than 75 percent of homes have curbside recycling service in such states as Minnesota, Washington and Oregon, some states have less than 30 percent. - Many more municipalities should participate in the dynamic domestic and international recycling economy. Tossing paper into a landfill is not a sustainable practice. Americans dispose of $3 billion worth of recoverable paper each year. We're filling landfills with money! This depletes resources, wastes energy, and represents a missed opportunity to participate in the multi-billion dollar recycling economic sector. - Recycling is important for local governments and citizens because it reduces costs and improves the environment. - The benefit is billions of dollars and associated jobs in the processing and sale of recyclable commodities. - The paper industry provides hundreds of millions of dollars to local governments in payment for recovered paper, saving those governments and their taxpayers millions in disposal fees. - Weyerhaeuser has experience to share with states and municipalities to improve or establish their own recycling programs.
