why bother; we should have more efficient collection. anything that goes into the container should be reclaimed.Where I live in California we do make money recycling as it is law to recycle. China where most paper goes for recycling has pretty much stopped most imports of American recycled paper. Cardboard/corrugated is still widely accepted. Plastics are losing favor cause we have outlawed most plastic single use products.we could be making money through reclamation of recyclables more efficiently.
industrial automation could make it practical.
in any case, it could be about the repurposing of recyclables. it may be cost effective to resort to State Capitalism to do it more effectively and generate revenue in a market friendly manner.
