This is a situation where we can have our cake and eat it too. Colorado Springs has a site they closed about 15 years ago. It's now being regraded and looks like it will be used for something else that's useful as the city grows around the site. Further east, the new trash site is refilling huge gullies and ravines, and in the coming decades that new found land will provide huge usable open expanses in an area that once was useless. Parks, shopping centers, Industrial Center, who knows, but certainly much more people friendly than it is now.
2) Landfill is not a happy sight
The landfill is at least 95% hidden from public view. I realize not all landfills can be so hidden, and that's' why I recommended Colorado. We have more than enough room on the eastern plains alone. After that WY is good for the following 500 years or more, then we could move on to states with even greater room. In any event Waste Management is careful about the trash, and if you don't know where to look you'll never notice it. More importantly, what is your alternative?
3) Landfill builds up quicker then it breaksdown.
Colorado Springs found that out after spending millions trying to extract methane gas from the old trash site I referenced above. It was a complete failure. Generally trash doesn't compost in the newer sites. They are simply too sealed for that to happen. Trash we throw away today is simply being stored for future generations to uncover if they want to. Be sure to shred important papers, because they probably will remain readable for years to come, even in a landfill
4) The more naturally stuff integrates back into nature the less abrupt any chances in the ecosystem occur. Unlike for instance burning it 'en mass' and killing astmasuffers nationwide
I can't understand what you are saying. Give it another try.
