Take a video tour of the new Chesapeake Energy Environmental Recycling Center at Goodwill Industries in OKC. The facility is near I-40 and Western. It is expected to divert 10 million pounds of materials from going to landfill in OKC every year!

Regarding diverting materials from going to landfills, I was just thinking about something today as I drove by the landfill:

Why not incinerate non-recyclable materials? It doesn't seem that it would be anymore damaging environmentally than a landfill. I wonder what the cost would be to build and operate a plant that would do this.

Instead of burying it in the ground, we blow it into the atmosphere?
