Recycling Lowers
Landfill Costs
Additionally, recycling cuts landfill costs. Building a new
landfill incurs several costs between $500,000 to $1,000,000
for the design and engineering alone. The lining what keeps
waste from seeping into the ground and contaminating it
will cost about $75,000 per acre. This money comes from tax
funds, meaning that taxpayers are the ones who fund these
expensive facilities. Even if no new landfills were made, it still
costs millions of dollars per year to run. A solution to this has
actually been implemented in Sweden for the last decade:
burn landfill waste for energy. This has proven so effective
that Sweden is looking to import trash from other countries
because they have little left to burn. This saves money in two
departments, both energy and waste.
